Boye Cooper To
Be Buried Saturday
By Julu M. Johnson, Jr.
The remains of the late Liberian former international
goal tender Boye Cooper is expected to be interred on
Saturday, July 24.
According to very credible sources, the late Boye
Cooper, who was popularly known as Dino Zoff as a result of his
splendid saves in goal, will be removed from the St. Moses Funeral
Palace in Gardnersville on Friday, July 23.
It was disclosed that the body of Boye Cooper would
then be taken to the Antoinette Tubman Stadium (ATS) for a whole
night wake keeping.
It was at the ATS that former save hands made name for
himself, clubs and country.
The wake keeping is slated to attract family members,
closed associates, soccer veterans, technicians, coaches, players as
well as officials of the Youth and Sports Ministry and the Liberia
Football Association (LFA).
On Saturday, the body of the former Lone Star, Mighty
Barrolle and Invincible Eleven (IE) goalkeeper will be taken to a
Church that was not named but is said to be situated on Crown Hill,
Broad Street.
Thereafter, the late Boye Cooper would be carried
to his final resting place at the Congo Town cemetery for burial.
The body of the late Boye Cooper has been
in Monrovia since it reached the capital from Nigeria on Sunday,
July 4, 2004. |
