Harold R. Cook

Great "Uncle Bud" was a blessing to everyone with whom he crossed paths. Growing up Uncle Bud was always present at the Rebman gatherings with Aunt Ruth. He would greet my sister and me with hugs and kisses, and call us 'Sweethearts'. This year at the winter Rebman gathering our family will surely miss him, but we know he is looking down at us and smiling.

My cousin and I worked for Bud over the last 5 years and we were priviledged to know him. His pleasant nature and warm spirit endeared him to us. We will miss Bud!

Harold was a dear and special man, a dedicated volunteer for the admission departments at PMC & PHS and, most importantly, a very proud father, grandfather and great-grandfather. He will be sorely missed by those who knew and loved him! God speed, Cookie!

As Ruth's niece, I have extremely fond memories of Uncle Bud. He played with my three daughters when they were little, teaching them the "black bird" song. I will never forget his warm smile and his gentle hugs. He was dearly loved by my entire family and we wish his family the peace and love of God, knowing that he is certainly in heaven with our Lord. My dad (Henry) and my uncles, Fred, Walt and Paul will surely be waiting to welcome him "home".
