Jean Cook Obituary

Cook, Jean (Nee Hodgson ) May 21, 1920 - August 12, 2016. Age 96 years. Beloved wife of Kenneth for 34 years. Loving mother of the late Sheila R. Coin, the late Robert (Sue) Regan and James (Cathy) Regan. Special Grams/Nana of Tasso (Marnie), Regan (Thomas), Erin (Darrin) and Bridget (Eamon). Dearest GG of Maelin, Liam, Stavros, Elena, Sia, Frankie, Catie and Nate. Further survived by other relatives and friends. Visitation Saturday, August 20 from 10:00AM until time of funeral mass at 11:00AM at LUMEN CHRISTI PARISH, 2700 W. Mequon Rd., Mequon, WI 53092. If so desired memorials to the church appreciated. Jean was an interior designer with an eclectic flair. She will be missed dearly by her family as they remember her by her witty sense of humor, her high fashion style and passion for making her home so warm and welcoming and what a dynamic woman she was. She was the perfect homemaker who made her home, garden, and everything around her beautiful. Jean was the dear, grand matriarch of a diverse and loving family. Jean's family would like to extend a special thank you to caregivers Holly, Amber and Carrie for their loving attention to Jean over the past year. Nurse Tammy from Horizon was exceptional.

I knew Jean over the many years she visited her son Jim and his family-wife Cathy and daughters Erin and Bridget here in San Diego. There was always a big fuss when Jean and Ken came to town and by fuss I mean lovely dinner parties , BBQ's, family gatherings which I was privileged to attend. In the middle of it all dressed in brilliant colors with lots of style was Jean, holding court with all of us loving being in her presence. She had flair and personality to spare. She was a roll model and inspiration certainly to this individual and as I am very sure to everyone she met. She will be greatly missed.
