  I didn't know John Cooper personally, but a year and a half ago we made
a connection between a couple of caves in Burnsville, Virginia and found
his NSS number carbided on the wall near the connection point. We looked
him up and sent him an email with the news. He responded positively and
remembered his trip there. He was surprised we had made the connection,
which they knew was close but was out of reach until modern technology
for widening came on the scene. Too bad he's gone.

Some of you older Texas and NSS cavers will remember John Cooper. He died a few 
days ago. I got the following note yesterday:
