Obituary of John Cook

     John Cook, 56, of Dry Ridge and formerly of Piner, passed away suddenly on Wednesday July 1, 2020 at the University of Cincinnati Medical Center. John was currently working as a supervisor for Prus Construction, previously Hartman & Smith. Prior to working in construction, he worked for Aristech Surfaces. John was a NASCAR fan who enjoyed playing cards- especially poker and playing softball. He also really loved caring for his 4 cats, Weiser, Scratch, Taz, and Colt. John found the most joy in being a great husband to his wife, Lori and spending time with his beloved grandson, Aiden.

He is survived by his loving wife of 10 years, Lori Cook; step-daughter, Brittany (Tyler) Adams; grandson, Aiden Adams; mother-in-law, Elaine Sargent; brother-in-law, Lanny Sargent; uncle, John Carlisle; aunt, Mary Carlisle; and many other close friends and relatives who will mourn his loss and forever cherish his memory. John will be remembered especially for how kind and generous he was. He chose to be an organ & tissue donor and is able to help others even after his passing.
