Beatrice Ann Robey, a beloved mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother, passed away peacefully on November 7, 2025, at her home in Crofton, Maryland, surrounded by her loving family. Born on April 1, 1927, in Neavitt, Maryland, Beatrice lived a life devoted to her family, who were her greatest joy and cherished priority.

As the daughter of Charles Dawson Cooper Sr. and Amelia Florence Haddaway, Beatrice grew up alongside her siblings, John William "Buddy" Cooper and Charles Dawson Cooper, Jr. Throughout her life, the bonds of family remained strong, a testament to the love and values instilled in her from a young age.

Her legacy continues through her children: daughter Lorraine Harrison, son William W. Robey, Jr., daughter Caroline A. Shields (Gary), daughter Sharon L. Rauser (Bob), son Charles W. Robey (Kim), and son Gregory B. Robey (Dawn). Beatrice reveled in her role as a grandmother to 11 grandchildren, each of whom was a twinkle in her eye. The laughter of her 18 great-grandchildren brought her unparalleled joy, and with the arrival of her 4 great-great-grandchildren, she felt a deep sense of gratitude for the beautiful lineage that she fostered.

Beatrice found happiness in simple pleasures. Whether it was the thrill of a bingo game, the satisfaction of crocheting or knitting, or the joy of immersing herself in captivating game shows on television, she embraced life with enthusiasm and delight.

Her absence leaves an indelible void in the hearts of all who had the honor of knowing her. Beatrice's radiant spirit, unwavering love for her family, and remarkable strength will be remembered and cherished forever.
