Penny Cooper (Nicholson) 1952-2024

We were sad to hear that Penny Cooper (Nicholson), Class of 1970, passed away peacefully this month aged 71, surrounded by her family and loved ones.

She is survived by her four children, Alastair, Naomi, Daniel, and Timothy and six grandchildren.

Her son Tim said: “She'll be remembered as a wonderful mother, grandmother, sister, aunt and teacher who loved life and was so very accomplished.”

Former classmates are invited to attend her memorial service, which will take place at 11am on 2 April 2024 at St Peter's Church, St Peter's Crescent, Selsey, Chichester, West Sussex, PO20 0NA.

The family kindly requests no flowers, but instead all donations to the Lewy Body Society: Home - Lewy Body.
