REMEMBRANCE:

Margaret Joan Cook, 73, of Tucson, AZ unexpectedly passed away in her home on January 27, 2020. She was born February 5, 1946 in Columbus, Ohio as the 11th of thirteen children. Joan graduated from Cardington High School Class of 1964.

Preceded in death by father, Chester A Thompson; mother, Cecilia B. (Ward) Thompson Hetrick; brothers, Lowell, Arnold, Paul and James (Jimmy); sisters, Hester, Irene, Melanie, Alene and Marie.

Survived by her loving and devoted Husband, Ronald D. Cook, with whom they would have celebrated 55 years of marriage on March 1st; Children, Timothy (Apryl), Michael and Scott Cook; Grandchildren, Andrea (Luke) Laminack, Erika (Mitchell) McLean, Ryan (Devin) Cook, Tyler, Simon, Elliott and Audrey Cook and Ben Andrade; Great-Grandchildren, Wyatt Laminack, Mason McLean, Parker Cook; Siblings, Robert (Margie) Thompson, Ronnie (Donna) Thompson and Ernestine High; along with many close friends.

Joan was Baptized into Christ in 1985. She gained strength and comfort knowing that losing a loved one is only temporary and that someday we will all be reunited together in Heaven. She thought of that reunion often and is now enjoying it. This brings us comfort now.

Joan had been struggling with failing health for several years. Our comfort is knowing she is no longer in pain.

Joan and Ron moved from Mt. Gilead, Ohio to Tucson, AZ on Aug 8, 1988.

She worked as a Nurses Aid at several nursing homes and hospitals in Morrow County and Tucson.

Additionally, Joan enjoyed staying in touch with High School classmates – but especially loved ALL family, rejoicing in, and celebrating when hearing of all the great and positive accomplishments or milestones everyone has achieved.

A Celebration of Her Life will be held at her and Ron’s home in Tucson on Saturday February 8, 2020 between 1pm – 4pm. Funeral Services will be held in Ohio at a Date To Be Determined.
