Married William Ralph Cook on 2 Jun 1945, in Cleburne Co., Alabama.
Obituary:
Bernice Langley Cook, 93, was called home by her Lord Jesus Christ on Thursday, August 17, 2017.
We will celebrate her remarkable life at 2:00PM on Sunday, August 20th at Dryden Funeral Home in Heflin.
There will be a visitation with the family on Saturday, August 19th from 4 until 6 PM.
Bernice is survived by her two daughters and a son-in-law, Jean (Frank) Bonner and Jane Johnson; her two sons and daughters-in-law, Ralph (Sonja) Cook and Chris (Darlene) Cook; as well as her "adopted" daughter, Margaret Estrada. Her surviving grandchildren are Terry Bonner, Nicholas Bonner, Michael Johnson, Zachary Cheatwood and Christopher Cook. She had four great grandchildren: LeighAnn (Josh) Hudgins; Andrew Bonner, Kaitlyn (Josh) New, Landon Johnson; two great-great
grandchildren: Kingsley New, Kashton New; and a host of beloved nieces and nephews.
She was born in Anniston, Alabama and saw the beginning of the automobile age; witnessed the beginning of electricity; survived the Great Depression. She worked at Anniston Ordinance Depot as a young woman, driving everything from jeeps to Sherman Tanks.
Many of her nieces and nephews spent much of their lives at Aunt Bernice's house. She always made sure everyone had plenty to eat. Anyone who knew her can attest to what a wonderful cook she was. Her biscuits could float off the plate, and her cakes would make the angels sing. She loved canning and her favorite time of the year was harvest time.
Jesus said, "For I was hungry and you gave Me food; I was thirsty and you gave Me drink; I was a stranger and you took Me in; I was naked and you clothed Me; I was sick and you visited Me; I was imprisoned and you came to Me." This is a testimony of Bernice's life - this is the way she lived. She may have had modest means, but she gave so much to so many.
Today she has heard Jesus say "Well done, My Daughter" as she was greeted by her beloved husband, Ralph; her daughter, Jacqueline; her parents, Virginia and Robert Langley; and all of her loved ones in the great Cloud of Witnesses.
Dryden Funeral Home is in charge of the arrangements.
