Vale Elizabeth Annie Cook (Nancy) 14/01/21 - 12/08/09


It is with sadness that we share about our Mama Nancy Cook. Last week the oldest and longest serving member of our parish passed on. Nancy Cook has been a loyal servant of our community for many years. Dating back to when our church was called Pt England Presbyterian.
Age was not a barrier for her, you would find her every Sunday morning in church, and at every elders meeting - rain or shine. She always had a smile on her face as she entered and left church. Nancy was a living testimony of a woman who's faith did not waver over time, a woman who loved and relied on her Lord. Nancy was a fine example of a faithful and comitted woman of God. We thank God for her many good works over the years that have helped mould our church to be what it is today. Thank you Nancy, from the bottom of our hearts for being an example of what we all hope to grow up and become - people who will be steadfast and content in the work of our Lord.

Zina and Fou have submitted their class' first tribute to Mama Nancy.
