Frances Collins Cooper

February 19, 1940

September 6, 2020

Frances Collins Cooper (known by all as “T9E”) died peacefully on September 6, 2020, with her husband, Mike, by her side. She was 80 years old. She was a beloved wife, mother, grandmother, sister, aunt, and friend. T9E was a true Texas lady who loved nothing more than to be surrounded by the people she loved and who loved her right back. She never met a stranger and was one of the world’s great conversationalists. She will be missed.

Frances was born on February 19, 1940, in Dallas, Texas to Burt Johnson Collins and Lucy Gowdey Collins. Her older sister, Lucy Ann, called Frances her “tee-niney” baby sister and in doing so gave her the one-of-a-kind nickname that she was known by her whole life – T9E. T9E’s family lived in Hearne for several years before moving to Waco in 1945 where T9E grew up. For the rest of her life, T9E could find in everyone she met a connection to Waco. T9E graduated from Waco High School in 1958 and went on to the University of Texas, Plan II on a Latin scholarship, graduating with a bachelor’s degree in education. While on the 40 Acres, she was a Longhorn cheerleader and member of Delta Delta Delta Sorority. It was also at UT that T9E met the love of her of her life, Michael Ross Cooper from Winslow, Mike and T9E married on June 16, 1962. While Mike attended UT Law School, T9E taught Latin at Allan Junior High School in Austin.
