Services: Friday, Nov. 5, 2 p.m. 


Viewing will be Thursday, November 4, from 4-8 p.m. at Hillcrest Mortuary and

George was born in Long Beach, CA, on April 16, 1939 and went Home on October 
25, 2004.

George and his parents joined First Baptist church, and then were sent out as 
charter members to begin the Chester Avenue Baptist church. He returned to 
First Baptist Church while dating his future wife, Carol. They attended on 
Truxtun Avenue and Olive Drive. George served in Childrens Ministry at FBC and 
ODC many years with his bride Carol. George served the Lord whenever called 
upon in his daily life. Where ever he went, he met someone he knew to visit 
with or would meet someone new to visit with. The gentle giant was truly a 
people person. George loved his God and Savior with his whole heart and wanted 
others to know him too. While at his office, he passed on to his Heavenly 
home. Absent from the body, present with his Lord (refer to II Corinthians 
5:8).

George is preceded in death by his parents, Fritz and Florence Cook. He is 
survived by his loving bride Carol of 42 years, daughter and son-in-law, Tami 
and Rick Castro; grandson, Bill Cook; uncle, Everette Kahl; aunts, Georgia Lee 
Kahl, Margaret Cook; cousins, Jan, Gail, Louise, Dean, Rachel; sister-in-law, 
Kathy and her husband, Al La Combe; brothers-in-law, Fred Law and Ken Law and 
his fiancée, Fran Eosposito; niece, Amy Heredia; great-niece and nephew, 
Andrea and Drew; nephew, Frank Cornejo and many loving friends and loved ones.

In lieu of flowers, George Cooks family suggests a donation could be sent to 
Olive Drive Church for Childrens Ministry, 550 Olive Drive, Bakersfield, CA 
93308.
