Sister Barbara Cooper, SNJM

Sister Barbara Cooper entered into eternal life on August 12. Sr. Barbara entered the novitiate in 1954 and dedicated more than six decades of loving service as a Sister of the Holy Names of Jesus and Mary. She taught in parish and Holy Names schools in Florida, New York and Virginia. Though she loved teaching, she always felt a strong call to nursing and founded the nursing program at Indian River Community College in Okeechobee, Florida. After 15 years as a nursing program coordinator and instructor, with hundreds of student lives transformed, Sr. Barbara retired from the college in 2006 and spent several years at the Academy of the Holy Names as the school nurse while assisting the sisters with their health needs.
