I met Cookie in 1962. I was waiting for classroom assignment at St. Greg's. I then heard a loud, sassy mouth girl. I turned. Saw a cute, petite red head. I couldn't believe anyone that small could be that loud. Ten years later. She married my best friend Dana. While they are still in love. We must say rest in piece Bruno. Still loud, still sassy. I will love her always

We had the honor of being a selected member of the Mariner’s, and I had the privilege of marching in the parades with Cookie and enjoying her beautiful smile! I will always remember her, Paul Vnuk

Hello Joe, Please accept our condolences to you and your family. Cookie sounds like an amazing woman, even participated in a drum and bugal corp. It's sad tha, as we get older, we realize how much we love each other and how much time slipped away. Peace to you and your family. With Much Love, Janine (and Steve) of course.

Cookie, I so loved playing bingo with you when you came to Maryland! We had so much fun, laughing and losing every game! What I most loved was the smile on Shannon‘s face as she sat next to you. Whenever you were in town, was Treasured time for Shannon. I was so honored when she let me crash your bingo outing!! It was so beautiful to see where Shannon got her beautiful heart from. Your smile, laughter and kindness Are contagious. It’s so obvious in Shannon’s eyes and smile.! Thank you for that wonderful time you spent with me, Rest well in the peaceful embrace of our Lord. I love you Cookie! ❤️ Kelley Tang
