Eunice Cook

Cindy & Heather,

I was blessed with knowing Eunice at Light of Christ. Your mom/g-ma was an awesome lady. Her wisdom was unfailing and her strength truly inspiring. I thank God for sharing her with us all.

Eunice will be missed by everyone as she was a friend to everyone she met. I enjoyed visiting with her everytime I was in town visiting my aunt and uncle (Mary and Mike Raczkowski). I know she's in heaven kicking back with Aunt Mary and laughing up a storm. My thoughts and prayers are with all of Eunice's friends and family.

Cindy,

I don't know you but your Mom was a very special person. I am a volunteer at Springfield's HOA and that's where a knew her.

She will be missed by everyone in Springfield. I send my sympathy to you & your family.

Cindy, your mom will be missed by all of us in the neighborhood. She was a good friend and a good neighbor. Our trips to Mexico will be one of the many fond memories I'll always have. She's in a better place now with her family and friends that have already left us.

I will always smile when I think of your mom and really is there a better legacy? Much love to all of you. I WILL be smiling on Friday because I know where she is!

Thanks for being in my life and thanks to Cindy for making it possible.
