Passed away peacefully on May 6, 2026 at the Clinton Public Hospital, at the age of 79. Loving daughter of Nora and Ronald Baker. Beloved wife of the late Derek Cooper. Mother of Louise Godwin, Deb Sheehan (Clint) and Chris Cooper (Joelene). Anny is also predeceased by her close friend Billy Taylor. Grandmother of Brock and Danica Sheehan.
Anny remained closely connected to her extended family in England. A proud momma to her pretty pitties, Parker and Winston, who never left her side.
Anny was a true artisan. She had a remarkable ability to transform simple materials into pieces filled with beauty, purpose, and heart. Her creativity was unmatched, and her curiosity for learning new skills never faded.
From her early years painting fine china with Derek in England for Royal Worcester, to later creating custom, hand‑beaded jewellery displayed at local markets across Ontario, Anny’s artistic journey was one of passion and care. Though she explored many forms of creativity over the years, one desire Anny held was to knit.
Her legacy lives on in the countless pieces she crafted for friends and family, each made with love and passion.
When not immersed in a creative project, Anny could be found sitting quietly with a book in one hand, a warm coffee nearby, watching the birds and taking in the world around her.
As we end this chapter and turn the page, this is not a book Anny read, but one she wrote.
Many thanks to Stratford General Hospital, Clinton General Hospital, Community Paramedicine, and Dr. Flynn, Dr. Newton, and Dr. Smith.
In honor of Anny’s wishes, a cremation has taken place and no formal services will be held.
In lieu of flowers, the family requests that donations be made to Heart and Stroke Foundation, Maitland Conservation, or planting a tree in Anny’s honour."
“I will arise and go now, and go to Innisfree” William Butler Yeats
