Patricia "Pat" Cooke, 82, of North Litchfield Beach, died April 9, 2014, after a short battle with COPD.

A cancer survivor, Pat was a devoted, a loving wife and mother, and a caring Christian.

She was born in Greenwood to the late Joseph Adie Spires and Eunice Chastain Spires. She grew up in Bamberg, where she excelled in basketball and was named class salutatorian.

Patricia married Winborn "Win" Clarke Cooke in 1952, her life partner for 59 years until his death in 2011. They resided initially in Kingsport, Tenn., and then for 24 years in the greater Philadelphia, Pa. area. Pat was a loving wife and attentive partner to her husband and a wonderful and caring mother to her three children. She instilled strong, traditional family values by example.

She retired with Win to Litchfield Beach, an area they loved. They immediately became involved in a number of property owner associations, civic activities, and involvement in local churches. She was a member of the Pawley's Island Presbyterian Church.

She was preceded in death by her parents, and her sister, Lattie Jo Johnson.

She was survived by her three children, Brenda Bagonis of Warrington, Pa., Lynn Kane of Litchfield Beach, and Winborn Cooke Jr. of Chattanooga, Tenn.; six grandchildren, Tony Bagonis, Kristin Bagonis, Amy Stanley, Rachel Inman, Robert Kane, and Stephanie Kane; and three great-grandchildren.
