My step-father was a resident at the Oaks of Mayview with Mrs. Cook. When I visited him every week, I had the pleasure of visiting with Mrs. Cook as well. She was so very sweet and friendly. She was always smiling and concerned for others. She will be missed. 💕

Judy, I enjoyed spending time with your Mom when my father-in-law was there. I missed seeing her and so a few weeks back, I visited with her on a Sunday morning. She was always so sweet and smiling constantly. I loved walking through those doors and seeing her look so happy to see my face. I am so glad that I had the chance to spend some time with her once I was able to spend time around people again after my life changes. I will have you and your family in my thoughts.

Judy, your mother was a treasure and a joy to be with. I have fond memories of being in her presence–she was always smiling and positive. Blessings to you as you grieve and fill the void.
