Cooley, Dwight John (31 AUG 1959 - 11 AUG 2018)

Dwight John Cooley passed away on Saturday, Aug. 11, due to a motorcycle accident in Glen Flora. He was 58 years old, and was a lifetime resident of Ladysmith.

He worked as a mechanic in Ladysmith and Bruce areas.

John was born on Aug. 31, 1959 in Robbinsdale, Minn. to Clyde E. and Dorothy L. (Hardy) Cooley of Brooklyn Center, Minn. He went to school there until the family moved in 1972 to Ladysmith. John graduated from Ladysmith High School in 1978.

John married Robin Louise Beckett in March 1980, and they had two children, Christy Leigh Cooley (Biolo) and Mark John Cooley.

John is survived by his daughter, Christy (Nick) Biolo of Superior; his son, Mark (Megan) Cooley of Fall River; his sister, Susan (Terry) Wildt of Barron; his brother, James (Gina) Cooley of Ladysmith; and his grandchildren, Abbigail (Cooley) Palmquist, Emma Cooley, Devann Cooley, Ryker Cooley, Maddex Biolo and Draeden Biolo.

He was preceded in death by his father, Clyde Cooley; his mother, Dorothy Cooley and his beloved wife, Diane Cooley (Rudi).

John did not wish to have a service or wake. We will be spreading his ashes as a family. We greatly appreciate all your prayers and thoughts as the family deals with this loss.
