  1. Send our deepest condolences to the Cooper family.

    I was lucky enough to meet Ken through business at Warrnambool Gyprock, he was great at his job, he was always there for a chat and to talk through anything plastering wise, from products to problems in my business, with his wealth of experience in the industry.
    Ken wasn’t just good and knowledgeable about plastering, he was a great human being and always gave you his full attention and time.
    Rest in peace Ken.
