Allan Edward Cook
December 26, 1978 - June 22, 2014
Allan Edward Cook passed away suddenly June 22nd,
he was 35 years old. Allan is survived by his four beautiful children
Alyssa, Allan, Natalie, Caitlin and his wife of 13 years Traci.
He also leaves behind his parents Allan & Donna Cook. His
four sisters and their families. Eileen & Chris Pike, Mary
& Scott Sweeney, Sarah & Aaron Scott, Emily Cook. His
beloved nieces & nephews Kellen, Skyler, Beau, Eleanor, Stephanie,
Jessica, Tia, Mariah, Danni, Adriel, and Ashlee.
Allan grew up in the suburb of Pleasant Ridge graduating
from School for the Creative and Performing Arts in 1999. Allan
was the only boy squashed in between two older sisters and two
younger sisters. He was so loved and teased all at the same time.
His childhood was filled with a loud crazy family who loved to
camp, fish and swim. Allan was a Life Guard along with all four
of his sisters for The Cincinnati Recreation Commission, his eldest
daughter Alyssa is now a second generation Life Guard working
at the same pool that he did. Allan met the love of his life Traci
when they were in High School and they were married a few years
later. They quickly added three beautiful children to their family
along with their eldest daughter Alyssa.
Allan was a wealthy man when it comes to family
and friends. He would give you the shirt off his back, drop everything
to come help you if you ever needed it, he volunteered his time
with the Special Olympics and The National Canine Cancer Foundation.
Allan was a friend of Village Church and a leader in Pathfinder
Ministry. He was very dedicated to his and his families faith
in God. He could pull a practical joke like nobody's business.
He was funny, he had the most amazing smile, his laugh was contagious.
Allan was such a unbelievable husband and father,
he was always so calm and peaceful. When our Uncle Bill was in
the final end stages of Colon Cancer my brother and his family
took him in and took care of him with patience, love, and understanding
even though I know it may have been a burden on their single income.
Allan gave so much to everyone and because of this our loss is
so great.
Our family would like to invite those who knew
and loved Allan or to support his family to come to a celebration
of his short but beautiful life on June 28, 2014 at 6pm at the
Seventh Day Adventist Church 3800 Clifton Avenue. There will be
a covered dish afterwards.
In lieu of flowers we are asking for donations that
will used to help his widow Traci and his four children.
You can go into any 5/3 Bank and make a donation
to The Allan Cook Memorial or you can click here and donate online.

road of grief and mourning.
