Cooper Edward Skiver, age 14, of Beebe, Arkansas, passed away on the afternoon of September 8, 2024. His departure leaves a profound void in the hearts of his family and friends and all who had the privilege of knowing him. Cooper was born May 18, 2010 to Clint and Tami Skiver and he was their pride and joy and the love of their lives. He was bright, inquisitive, full of personality and he loved to make people laugh. Cooper also loved being spoiled by his Nene, who thoroughly loved spending time with him and ensuring he had his favorite meals cooked. He was a proud student at Harding Academy where he was a member of the band and Junior High football team. Cooper was an accomplished black belt in martial arts and enjoyed working with the younger kids helping them grow their skills in martial arts. Some of his favorite things to do were spending time on the lake with family and friends and enjoying the opportunity to eat a good steak. Cooper loved taking family vacations, which included trips to Alaska and his favorite vacation to Yellowstone National Park. His goal was to one day become a medical doctor. Cooper's kind heart and loving, beautiful smile will be forever missed!

Left to cherish his memory and to miss him dearly are his parents, Clint and Tami Skiver; his grandparents, Peggy Grizzle (Nene), Don Grizzle and Roger Skiver; his Aunt Cristi and Uncle Mike Long and Aunt Kristi and Uncle Adam Moreno; several cousins and numerous family friends who loved Cooper like their own.
