Obituary: Lyric Ray Lynn Cook

Obituary courtesy Locke Funeral Home

Lyric Ray Lynn Cook was born on October 2, 2001, in Waterloo to Dan and Misty Morrissey. She attended Kingsley Elementary School and was 10 years old. Lyric went home to be with the Lord July 13, 2012.

Lyric is survived by her parents, Dan and Misty Morrissey, and her brother Dillin Morrissey. Maternal grandmother, Wylma Cook and paternal grandmother Vicki Weikert. Paternal great grandmother Ilene Weikert. Maternal uncles and aunts: Russel Bertch, Kathy and Paul Anderson, Tammy (favorite aunt) and Bill Brousseau, Tracy and Denise Bertch, Heather and Drew Collins, and Jeramia Cook. Lyric was also survived by many cousins and friends.

Lyric is preceded in death by paternal great grandfather, Jim Weikert and maternal grandfather, Ray Cook.

Lyric was a very special young lady. She was an infectious joy to be around with a smile that radiated with love. In her short years Lyric came to know the Lord Jesus Christ and the importance of salvation through Jesus for the people of the world. She had a heart of compassion for her family and her friends. Lyric enjoyed bowling, cheerleading and gymnastics. Lyric loved to be outside playing, snow, rain, or shine.

Most seen was Lyric’s unconditional love for her family and her special love for her brother Dillin. Her desire to have fun within those loving relationships was seen while going to church, sharing devotions with her parents in the morning and card games with grandma in the afternoons.

Lyric will be missed by all, however, our comfort rests in the Truth that Lyric is with our Savior, Jesus in Heaven. Our family looks forward to the day we will be with her to experience the perfect love, joy, and peace that she breathes in every moment now.

Services to celebrate the life of Lyric will be held at Heartland Vineyard, Saturday, December 29, from 2 p.m. to 5:30 p.m. I thank all of you who have gone through this time with me and welcome everyone to these services.
