Frances Waymire Cook
Frances Waymire Cook, 94, of Billings, passed away July 6, 1999, at St. John's Lutheran Home.
First child of Winfield L. and Mabel Coover Waymire, Frances was born Nov. 14, 1904, in the summer kitchen on the Coover family farm near Dayton, Ohio. She grew up on an adjacent farm and, after graduating from Butler High School, earned a teaching certificate at Miami-Jacobs Business College in Dayton and taught one year at Polk School in rural Dayton.
Frances then moved to Ames, Iowa, to work her way through college at Iowa State University, earning a BS degree in chemistry. While studying for her master's degree in bio-chemistry she met and married the late Dr. Wendell B. Cook who was pursuing his doctorate in bio-chemistry. Wendell and Frances moved to Storrs, Conn., in 1931 where Wendell became a professor at the University of Connecticut.
An active member of the Storrs Congregational Church, Frances often created floral arrangements for Sunday services using flowers from her garden. Both she and husband Wendell served on the planning and development committee for the church's retirement community at Glen Ridge in Storrs-Mansfield. Frances sewed for the Red Cross during World War I and World War II and was a volunteer for the Office of Price Administration during World War II.
A Cub Scout leader, a member of the Women's Club, Garden Gate Club, and the Mansfield Historical Society, Frances enjoyed many other activities as well including Bridge Club, gardening, nutritional studies, and food preparation and preservation. In 1990, Frances moved to Billings to be near her daughter. Her greatest joy of recent years has been to provide her family with wonderful memories through yearly reunions at Chico Hot Springs.

He immigrated to the United States and passed through Ellis Island in 1930, becoming a citizen on May 30, 1930, in his adopted hometown of Sheridan.

They were married in Hardin, Mont., on May 10, 1934. Together, they shared many business ventures, with the largest being the building and operation of the J.E. Motel & CafÈ.

He had a passion for fishing, and he loved spending time fishing with his wife and grandchildren. He also enjoyed taking long drives in the country.

Minnie's life revolved around family, especially her children who she single--handedly raised; joyfully and unselfishly meeting their every need. Her children's love for her and their gratitude and pride in her accomplishments will forever be in their hearts. They have enormous admiration for her constant optimistic, "forge ahead" attitude, through her years of hard work and sacrifice. Among the numerous goals she attained for her children, was making certain they were educated with the values provided by the Sisters of the Church. Upon retiring, her time was spent tending her flower garden, traveling with her four grandchildren, especially Michelle, with whom she loved to go shopping. As Minnie aged and became dependent, her boys and their families lovingly cared for her until she entered a full-care facility. Her boys, who she had lived for, were by her side until she lived no more.
Minnie is survived by her sons, Bob (Loraye) Glasgow and Gary Glasgow of Billings; grandchildren, Bobby Glasgow of Colorado, Michelle Glasgow, Gary (Rachel) P. Glasgow, and Gregg (Rainey) Glasgow; and great-granddaughter, Kelsie Glasgow, all from Billings.

Al spent the last six years of his life helping on his daughter and son-in-law's farm in Denton. When he wasn't on the tractor, he was always ready to help out his three boys where help and love were needed.
Al cherished his grandchildren with all his heart. He was always there with love and support for them, whether it be following the boys when they were "fiddling, " or going to the football games, or going to the basketball games, or to any of their school functions.
He was a devoted husband, father, and grandfather to all of his family and to others as well.
His greatest joy was spending time with the family, camping, hunting and fishing and most of all laughing and having fun. "Al" always had a joke or funny comment to go with most conversations. Another great joy was playing with his brothers, Johnny and Gideon in the Krieger Brothers Band. They could sit for hours just jamming away. He would listen to different tapes and play along with his bass guitar when his brothers weren't available. Albert is preceded in death by his parents and two sisters, Eve and Ruth.
Al is survived by his loving wife, Joyce; and his three sons and one daughter, Randell and his wife, Cindy, their three sons, Trevor, Trenton, Troy of Billings; Conley and his wife, Jimmey, their three daughters, Nicole, Karla and Julia of Billings; Steve and his wife, Mary, their three sons, Joshua, Alex, and Jacob of Denton; Kelly and her husband, Randel, their two sons, Tyler, Conner, and daughter, Jenna of Denton.
Albert also had three special nieces, Jennifer Dubois, Shelly Moats, and Darlene La Ferriere; as well as two great-grandchildren, Keisha and Austin, and many other nieces and nephews. Albert was also survived by his brothers, Johnny and his wife, Hilda, Gideon and his wife, Anna, and Albert's sisters as well, Martha and her late husband, George Baum, Ester and her late husband, Alvin Weixel, and Leonna and her husband, George Brazer.
