George Cooley

George Walter Cooley, Jr.  passed away peacefully at his home on Wednesday, April 17, 2019. He was born August 16, 1941 in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania to George and Willa Cooley. After high school, George enlisted in the United States Army. He began his military service in 1960, and retired in 1981. During his time in the Army he earned many medals, including the Vietnam Service Medal, Good Conduct, and Sharpshooter, to name a few. He worked as a Mac Com Equipment Operator, Infantryman, and retired as a Drill Sergeant at Fort Dix, NJ. As a Drill Sergeant he took great pride in his appearance, setting the example for his troops by making his boots so shiny you could see your reflection, and having his uniform so sharp you could cut your finger on the crease. George married the love of his life, Marteual “Monnie” Cooley, on November 2, 1963. George and Monnie enjoyed 39 years of marriage, and their union produced a loving family with two children, Loran and DeeAnn. George is survived by his son Loran Cooley Sr., DeeAnn Bill, son-in-law Ronald Bill, his grandchildren Loran Cooley Jr., Rena Cooley, LaTae Tucker, Donald Lockett, Destiny Kirby, and 11 great grandchildren, Lamar, Lauryn, Michael, Camden, Anthony, Kya, Layla, Aniyah, Trindon, Ezio, and Kingston, and a host of aunts, uncles, in-laws and cousins. After his retirement from the military, George, worked as a supervisor at Churches Chicken, where his family went from calling him “Little Chick” to “Chicken George”. Upon his departure at Churches Chicken he began working as a mail clerk at Eastern Coal, and later became an accounting clerk. In 1999, at the age of 57 he earned his Bachelor of Science Degree and retired as a Business Analyst at UPMC in 2006. George enjoyed a variety of activities such as bowling, singing, dancing and attending parties. However, as much as he enjoyed those activities, none of those compared to the happiness he received when he was watching a Steeler game with family, especially when the Steelers won! He loved to offer words of inspiration and encouragement to the people he cared about. One of his favorite quotes was the 5 “P’s” – “Prior Planning Prevents Poor Performance”. When you would ask him how he was doing, his first response was typically, “Wonderful”, earning him the nickname, “Mr. Wonderful”. On the other hand, he also earned the nickname, “Teargas”. When he was beating you in a card, pool, or dart game, he would remind you, “My name is Teargas, I’ll make you cry!” He used those words to try to bring out the best in you, and yes, sometimes to rub it in. After George and Monnie moved to West Virginia, he went from being an atheist, to studying the Bible and developing a firm belief in Jehovah God. He would often use the term “Agape”, in his correspondences. Agape being the highest form of love; love based on principle. This Agape love is the kind of love George felt for the family and friends in his life. He would often use the expression, “Love Incorporated” when he talked about his family, whether they were blood or not, it never mattered to him. He accepted you for who you were, not from where you came. It was all about true Agape Love.
