Cooper Teffeteller, fondly known by many unique nicknames, left this Earthly Realm on July 5th, 2022 due to the overwhelming complications of life.
An alumnus of Cedar Cliff High School Class of 2016, he was a member of the West Shore Marching Band. He channeled his talent of movement and expression as a battery tenor. He then graduated with an Associates Degree in Architecture from HACC. Most recently, Cooper was pursuing a Bachelor’s Degree in Architecture from Drexel University. He worked as a Draftsman at Murray Associates Architects, PC., and had a particular passion for Environmental Concept Architecture. Notably, he was proud of his designs, works, and relationships built while working at Highland Gardens in Camp Hill, PA.
His interests were abundant; to name a few: his Volkswagen Jetta, the story of the Titanic, Star Wars, squirrels, Legos, gaming, music, and of course, watches. His brilliant mind often pondered the mysteries of the Universe: relativity, subjectivity, space, and the human condition. He is missed dearly by his Mother, Jodie Payne, his Big Sisters, Chelsie (Kane) Morrissey and Rubie Tuesday Teffeteller, Opal, and his niece Josie “JoJo” Morrissey: his brothers from other mothers, James “Jim” Morrissey and Michael Mayer; his Grandparents, Michael and Judith Payne; his extended family; and the many people who knew and loved him. His boundless, animated personality and contagious laugh are unforgettable.
In lieu of flowers and gifts, give a hug to someone you love the way Cooper hugged his Mom, and eat a Reese’s peanut butter cup! The Cooper Resonance Fund (TCRF) is being established to support causes that drove Cooper’s intense creativity. TCRF is accepting donations via Venmo @thecooperresonancefund.
A private service has already been held by the family in his honor.
Resonance /rɛzənəns)/: 1. The quality in a sound of being deep, full, and reverberating. 2. The reinforcement or prolongation of sound by reflection from a surface or by the synchronous vibration of a neighboring object.
May Cooper’s spirit continue to resonate within and all around you.
The Sullivan Funeral Home is honored to serve Cooper’s Family.
