Mary R. Cooke's Obituary
Mary R. Cooke, 89, of Dunbar, passed away August 20, 2006, at CAMC-Memorial Division.
Mary passed away on a Sunday, doing what she loved—playing the piano and singing. Mary trained many choirs, trios and quartets over the years. She was directing the Senior Citizens Choir when she had an aneurysm. God called her home where she will continue in His Heavenly Choir.
Mary was a graduate of the Moody Bible Institute. She had worked in missions, had been a secretary in the WV State Agriculture Dept. and in a local law firm.
Mary's first love was music. She loved to play, sing, write and arrange Christian music.
Miss Cooke is survived by a brother, Rev. William Cooke and his wife, Virginia; nephews, John Cooke and his wife, Sara, Peter Cooke and his wife, Annette. Another nephew, James, died two years ago.
A memorial service for Mary will be held at the St. Paul United Methodist Church, South Charleston, on Sunday, Sept. 17, at 1:00pm. The Rev. John Allen, her pastor, will officiate.
In lieu of flowers, memorial donations may be made to the St. Paul United Methodist Church, 4606 Kanawha Turnpike, South Charleston, WV 25309.
Arrangements are in the care of Keller Funeral Home, Dunbar.
