From the DC Campaign to Prevent Teen Pregnancy:
“THE FAMILY AND FRIENDS OF
Algernon (Jay) Cooper, III
CORDIALLY INVITE YOU TO JOIN US A MEMORIAL
CELEBRATION OF HIS LIFE AND WORK
DECEMBER 8 at 6:00 PM
BUSBOYS AND POETS
1025 5TH STREET NW
WE REQUEST YOU BRING YOUR THOUGHTS, PRAYERS, AND FONDEST MEMORIES OF AJ AS WE MOVE FORWARD
TOGETHER AND ALWAYS CHOOSE PEOPLE OVER POLITICS. WE WOULD LIKE TO THANK YOU FOR YOUR CONTINUED
SUPPORT TO OUR FAMILY AND YOUR CONTRIBUTION TO AJ COOPER SCHOLARSHIP FUND AT DC CAMPAIGN TO PREVENT TEEN PREGNANCY.
All I can say is that all of the emotions you are feeling need to be channeled into political power. Let that burning feeling in your gut be the fuel to power a movement. Otherwise when the smoke clears all we will have left are tears and ashes. – A.J. Cooper, December 2014
Funeral services for Algernon “Jay” Johnson Cooper, III will be held on Tuesday, December 9, 2014 at Nativity Catholic Church, 6001 13th Street NW, Washington, DC 20011; beginning with family visitation at 10:00 AM and Mass of Christian Burial at 11:00 AM. The family requests that in lieu of flowers or cards, contributions be made in Jay’s honor to DC Campaign to Prevent Teen Pregnancy, 1112 11th Street NW, Suite 100 Washington, D.C. 20001.
Friends are invited to join the family for a repast in the Nativity Catholic Church Community Room immediately following the service.”

Potomac Harmony is Back! Following a gap year of competing, then virtual rehearsals during the pandemic, followed by the well-earned retirement of our long-term director, a year of a director search, Potomac Harmony hit the regional contest stage in Concord, North Carolina in March for the first time since 2018! It was exhilarating, reaffirming, and rewarding!
The chorus hit all of its goals, the biggest of which was to have fun and sing our best on contest stage — we did both! Because we earned a score over 400 points, our new Director, Allison Lynskey, was awarded the Novice Director award, photo above. Additionally, one of our charter members, Jackie Bottash, was nominated for and honored with the Leadership Excellence award. It was a celebratory weekend!
What’s next? So much! We now look forward to upcoming performances, growing our membership, and expanding our musical product with new arrangements and an education component each week. It’s an exciting time to be part of this ever-growing ensemble!
