MIKILYNN “MIKI” COOK
Mikilynn “Miki” Cook, 68, of Mingo Junction, passed away peacefully February 8 after a long battle with lymphoma. Miki was born on June 11, 1957 in Steubenville, Ohio.
She is survived by her daughter, Jamie McGinnis; son-in-law, Ben McGinnis; grandchildren Liam, Luca, Lochlan, Piper, and Carmen; her adoptive father, Harry “Papou” Maragos; her uncle, Albert “Angel” Arabia; and her step-daughter, Karrie Wedlake. She was preceded in death by her husband, George “Louie” Cook Sr., who passed away five years ago, one day after her passing; her biological father, Michael Arabia; and her mother, Irene Maragos.
Miki was a devoted grandmother, a proud Jefferson Union High School graduate, Class of 1975, an avid Pittsburgh Steelers and Pittsburgh Pirates fan, and will always be remembered for her humor, infectious laugh, and love of capturing memories through photographs. She showed her love by showing up–and she always did.
In accordance with her wishes, no funeral services will be held, and she will be honored privately by her family.
The family thanks the Tony Teramana Cancer Center for their care over the past several years.
