Patricia Cook Obituary

Patricia A. "Pat" Cook, 71, of Woodriver, formerly of Quincy, died Sunday (Nov. 4, 2012) in Alton.

She was born Sept. 2, 1941, in Quincy, a daughter of Luther and Dorothy Taylor Dobey. She married Jerald F. "Jerry" Cook on Oct. 19, 1957. He died Jan. 28, 2004.

Pat worked at Motorola and Davis Cleaver over the years and then retired from St. Vincent Home. She was of the Christian faith. Pat loved nature, flowers, gardening, sewing, crafts and animals. Her greatest joy was the time spent with her family. She will be sorely missed by all who knew her. She was more than a mother, grandmother and truly "great" great-grandmother -- she was a best friend.

She is survived by four children, Belinda Lee Franklin and her husband, Scott, of Edwardsville, Peggy Jo Summers and her husband, Donnie, of Palmyra, Mo., Karen Ann Kern and her husband, Ted Sr., of Colchester and James Jerald Cook of Woodriver; grandchildren, Melinda Ann McFadden and her husband, Bryan, Jeremy Ray Summers and his wife, April, Scott Riley Franklin Jr. and his wife, Amanda, Stefanie Ryan Franklin-Niebling and her husband, Christian, Ted Kern Jr., Dawnie Jo Summers and Jonah Michael O'Neal; great-grandchildren, Zackery Allen O'Connell, Nicholas Edwin Paul McFadden, Isabella Ann McFadden, Henry Matthew Franklin and Louis Riley Franklin; brothers, Gordon "Butch" Dobey and Roger Dobey; a sister, Sharon Dobey; and numerous nieces, nephews and other relatives.

She was preceded in death by her parents; a brother, Luther Dobey; and sisters, Edith Dobey and Maxine Bunte.

SERVICES: 10:30 a.m. Thursday in the Duker and Haugh Funeral Home. Burial will be in Sunset Cemetery.

VISITATION: 4 to 7 p.m. Wednesday in the Duker and Haugh Funeral Home.

MEMORIALS: Diabetes Foundation.

HEAVEN JUST GOT A NEW ANGEL

Really gonna miss you Mom

It's really gonna be different without you...
Time came when you had to go for the rest of our life's

We will be thinking about you...

I'll miss you my Mom
I'll miss you my Grandma
I'll miss you my Friend

I promise my love for you will never end

In your finest moments I was there with you,
and without you, things won't be the same
But there's a higher power that we answer to
and you heard him calling your name

Really gonna miss you

Everything about you and your smiling face
I know you want us all to be strong

You're going to that magic place to be with the love of your life (Dad)
and he will be singing you a brand new song

I'll miss you my Mom
I'll miss you my Grandma
I'll miss you my Friend

I promise my love for you will never end

I'm Really Gonna Miss You
