Dolores Cook
Obituary
Our sweet Dolores Ann Cook now walks
with her Lord and Savior. She was born in Rogers, Arkansas, to Eldo &
Zelma Bergen. She graduated from Newton High School in Newton, where
she met the love of her life, Casey Cook. After graduation, she
attended Emporia State College. On Nov. 27, 1960, she married Casey
and the two established their home in Oklahoma City.
Dolores' true life's work was raising
and taking care of her family, dedicating her life to them. Always
smiling and encouraging, she became the "go to" counselor
and prayer warrior for her family, her friends and her children's
friends. Dolores especially loved singing in the church choir, where
her angelic soprano could be heard every Sunday. Her relationship
with Casey was a testament to all of how a Godly, loving marriage
should be. Dolores was loving, enduring, strong, faithful and
empowering. As the matriarch, her strength, character and loving
leadership will be continued through the generations.
She was preceded in death by her
sister, Donna Warden; both parents; and granddaughter, Kaylan.
Dolores is survived by her husband,
Casey; daughter, Christy and husband Grant Hawkins; daughter, Shelly
and husband Keith McInroe; son, Brent Cook and wife Cindy; daughter,
Kayla and husband Ben Seamans; grandchildren: Creigh, Chase and Kim,
Coy, Casey and Brad, Hunt, Bridgette, Colton and Jill, Holden and
Harper; great-grandchildren, Maci, Eli and Graham; one sister, Nina
Hirsch; and many friends.
