BROOKFIELD — Eva E. Cook, 92, entered eternal life Thursday, July 11, 2024, while a patient at O’Brien’s Memorial Nursing Home, Masury, under hospice care, following an extended illness.

Eva was born Oct. 17, 1931, in Sharon, Pa., a daughter to Peter and Eva Hemlinger Yarabenetz.

She was a 1949 graduate of Brookfield High School. She married the love of her life, John P. “Tubby” Cook, shortly thereafter on July 15, 1950.

In 1959, Eva finished beautician school in Youngstown and began a career as a beautician. In addition, she worked in the cosmetic department at Livingston’s and Maxwell’s.

She was a member of St. Patrick Catholic Church, Hubbard.

In her spare time, Eva enjoyed playing golf. However, she was known for her tasty nut rolls.

She was preceded in death by her husband, John, who passed Feb. 1, 2004; son, Frank J. Cook; and sisters, Pauline McNeel and Margaret “Tudge” Seiple.

In accordance with her wishes, a memorial service will be held at a future date.

She will be laid to rest, next to her husband and her son, in Hubbard Union Cemetery.
