Margaret Irene Cooke

Margaret Irene Cooke, 78, of Ballinger passed away Monday, October 10, 2016 at Shannon Medical Center in San Angelo, Texas wit her children and grandchildren at her side.

She was born March 26, 1938 in Rising Star, Texas to Verda and Robert Barton Pruett. She was a devoted mother, sister, grandmother, and an Aunt to many. She loved her family and friends and she loved my “Daddy” until God took him home on February 12, 1992 from cancer. She spent most of her time devoted to her children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren. It was her passion in life; to be surrounded by her children.

Margaret “Momma” was preceded in death by her husband; her parents; her grandparents; a son; a grandson; and aunts, uncles, cousins, sister, and brother.

She is survived by her children, Kenny Cooke, Karen Horton, and Amy Roberts; her sons-in-law, Edward Horton and Dale Roberts; ten grandchildren; ten great-grandchildren; her sister, Patsy Jones; and many nieces, nephews, cousins, and friends.

A memorial service will be held at 10:00 am on Saturday, October 15 at Lange Funeral Home in Ballinger, Texas.
