Statement by Governor on Death of Family Court Judge Alan Cooper

Wilmington, DE –   The Governor extended his deepest sympathies to the family of Family Court Judge Alan Cooper and issued the following statement.

“The death of Family Court Judge Alan Cooper is a tremendous loss for the State, and I extend my deepest condolences to the Cooper family.  Judge Cooper served for the past ten years as a dedicated judicial officer and public servant. He was willing to serve in the difficult and often thankless role of domestic violence liaison judge because he realized the necessity and importance of the work. Judge Cooper’s dedication to the mission of the Family Court and passion for public service was reflected in all of his advocacy on behalf of Delaware’s families, both during his time on the bench and in his previous tenure in private practice, as well as in his dedication to his own family. He will be greatly missed.”
