Wife of Benjamin F. Cook and mother to Margaret Cook Gordon, Mary Ophelia Cook Sutton Bell, Cornelia Cook Scott,
Vivian Cook Gibson, James T. Cook and Ben F. Cook, Jr. and Helen Cook McClain.

God saw you getting tired
A cure was not to be,
So he put his arms around you
And whispered
"Come with me"
And with tearful eyes
I watched you fade away
Although I loved you dearly,
you could not stay.
A loving heart stopped beating,
Hard working hands at rest.
God broke my heart to prove,
He only takes the best.
Each time I see your picture,
You seem to smile at me and say,
Don't cry I am in God's hands
We will meet again someday.
