Peggy Sue Cook

PEGGY SUE COOK, age 68, passed away peacefully on Monday, April 20, in hospice care in

Broadview Heights, Ohio. Peggy was a loving mother, grandmother, sister, and aunt. She

was born on March 1, 1958, and is preceded in death by her parents, Ralph Sr. and Delores

(Shultz) Wade; and her brothers, Michael Wade and Ralph Wade Jr.

Peggy was passionate about her work and loved spoiling her grandchildren. She especially

cherished the time she spent with her grandchildren and with her close friends, both of

whom meant the world to her. Whether she was fishing, watching basketball, traveling, or

camping, it wasn’t so much about what she was doing—it was about being together. She had

a special way of making people feel welcome, valued, and loved. In her own way, Peggy was

a bit of a mystery—in the best sense—living a life full of depth, connection, and moments

that were uniquely her own. She had an impact on each person she interacted with and

lived life to the fullest.

Peggy is survived by the father of her children, Gary Cook Sr.; her children, Nichole (Tom)

Wunderle, Michelle (Chris) Peifer, and Gary Jr. (Sarah) Cook; her siblings, Denise Wade, Elba

Wade, and Barbara (Wade) Tabacsko; and her beloved grandchildren, Lauren, Kyle, Morgan,

Aidan, Benjamin, and Briella, along with many nieces, nephews, and cousins.

Family, friends, and all whose lives Peggy touched are invited to join her family in

celebrating her life on Saturday, May 9, 2026, from 11 AM to 3 PM at North Royalton

Christian Church, 5100 Royalton Rd., North Royalton, Ohio 44133. In lieu of flowers, the

family requests that donations be made to The City Mission Homeless Shelter, an

organization Peggy held close to her heart.

She will be deeply missed and forever remembered by those who knew and loved her.PP
