Messages:
To all of the Bill Cook Family, We are very sorry for your loss of your Father your Dad was one of the first neighbors I met when we moved into Penbrook. We kinda lost touch over the years but I would sometimes meet him in Forest Lawn Legion and always shared a story or two about the neighbors. Once again to the Family we are sorry for your loss. Larry and Sandy Ames
Dad, God saw you getting tired and a cure was not to be. So he put his arms around you and whispered "come with me". With tearful eyes I watched you and saw you pass away, although I loved you dearly I could not make you stay. A golden heart stopped beating, hard working hands at rest. God broke my heart to prove- He only takes the best!. I know this was the poem for you when it was sent to me and it speaks the words that are hard to say! We all will go on and will be fine, so just be in heaven and watch over us all as we will keep you in our hearts each and every day. Your Daughter, Liz-Cameron and Cambridge
