John Scott Cooper passed away on July 23, 2022, at the age of 70, in Princeton, MN. He was born in Robbinsdale on November 15, 1951, to Donald and Deloris (Kitchen) Cooper. John graduated from Osseo High School in 1969, and he was in the United States Navy from 1970-1971, serving in Vietnam. He married his wife, Mary, in June of 1977, and he worked as a postal carrier for the United States Postal Service for over 25 years.
