In December 2017, we lost Cooper Williams, the son of Michael Williams '00 and Jennifer Strong '02, in a tragic car accident. Cooper was an amazing young man with many adventures and stories. Cooper was only 8 years old, but had already impacted the lives of many people. Cooper was all Aggie. His dream was to go to Texas A&M University and join the Corps of Cadets. He would have been a proud member of the Fightin' Texas Aggie Class of 2031. Funds from the event will be used to raise money for the Cooper Dean Williams Memorial Scholarship Fund. The purpose of the endowment is to award an annual scholarship to an undergraduate student majoring in the TAMU College of Agriculture and Life Sciences to offset expenses that come with earning a degree.

The #SuperCooper5K is set for April 8, 2018 on campus. The run will start at 8:00 am at the Association of Former Students building. There is a Facebook page and a Facebook event. Look for #SuperCooper5K. Registration for the event is at:

We are also looking for sponsors. Anyone interested in sponsoring can direct message me or see the post on Facebook.

Pass the word. This is a very important event.

Thanks for posting! This is exactly what I've been looking for. An early April 5k to help get me back in a workout routine, and this lets me help Aggies too! Just completed registration!

Going to get some co-workers on my Walk Across Texas team to sign up as well. I'm so sorry for the loss of Cooper, but so impressed with the good this family is doing for others to honor him.
