Marilyn R. Cooke

Marilyn R. Cooke, beloved aunt, passed away after a brief illness on Oct. 16, 2024. She is survived by her 6 nieces and nephews, Marilyn, Peggy, Kevin, Danny, Alfred, Debbie and their families, all who loved her dearly.

Marilyn worked most of her life in the health industry as a nurse and x-ray technician. She was a warm, friendly person who prided herself on the care she gave her patients.

She was an awesome aunt who loved spending time with her family. Her parents, Margaret and Alfred, and two sisters, Peggy and Eileen (Sis), and their husbands, Jack and Billy, had predeceased her. Marilyn was the first relative to reach the age of 91.

Most recently, you might have seen her sitting outside in the park with her rollator and one of her aides, chatting with her neighbors from Waldo Avenue and fondly petting their dogs, who she enjoyed immensely.

Viewing will be at Riverdale-on-Hudson Funeral Home at 8:15am on Monday, October 21 with the Funeral Mass to follow at 10:30 at St. Margaret’s of Cortona Catholic Church.
