Her Smiles and laughter will be deeply missed as Heaven has opened its gates for a true angel. She was the wife of the late Robert E. Cook who died in 1998. Born in Peabody on November 20, 1944, she was the daughter of the late George and Evelyn (Miller) Anderson. Her family meant everything to her, their joys, their accomplishments and their laughter is what she lived for.

She worked at Kemper/Arbella Mutual Insurance for 30 years before her retirement in 2007. Her co-workers were more than that, they were her friends and her second family.
