SUMMARY:Mass for the anniversary of the death of Fr Norman Cooper
DESCRIPTION:Fr Norman Cooper is a fondly remembered priest of our Archdiocese who tragically fell to his death on 20 May 1996 climbing in the Sgurr Nan Gillean (Peak of the Young Men) in the Cuillins in Skye\, while away for a short midweek break in Applecross with fellow priests (David Gemmell\, Gerry Hand\, Gordon Muchall and Jock Dalrymple).  \nThe article photo was taken on the day of his death. He is pictured with Fr Gemmell and Elspeth McPartlin (her father\, Dr Gerry McPartlin\, took the photo). \nNorman was born in Falkirk in 1955\, one of five brothers. He went to St Mungo’s High School\, and studied at St Andrew’s College\, Drygrange\, before being ordained priest at St Anthony’s\, Polmont\, in 1980. \n \nHe was then assistant priest at St John’s Portobello (1980-82)\, St Francis Xavier’s\, Falkirk (1982-5) and St Mary’s Cathedral (1985-1988) before further studies at the Catholic University of America (out of which he emerged as a Doctor of Ministry and as the author of a book ‘Collaborative Ministry’.  \nOn his return to the diocese\, he served in the Borders and briefly Tranent\, as well acting as a consultant on Pastoral Planning. \nThe 30th anniversary of his death will be marked with a Mass open to anybody who wishes to celebrate the life of\, and pray for\, a fine and enthusiastic human being and priest at 7:00pm on Wednesday 20 May at St John’s\, Portobello.
