William Cook Obituary
Publish in a newspaper
"Doc" was a beloved and highly respected chiropractor in Shelby Township for 43 years. He dedicated his life to the health and well-being of his patients, becoming a cherished member of the community he so passionately served. His compassionate care and commitment to excellence left a meaningful mark on countless lives.
Beyond his professional achievements, Bill was a man of many interests and talents. He had a passion for golf, often spending weekends on the green with friends, family, and brothers in chiropractic. His love for music was evident in the way he would light up at the sound of his favorite tunes, often filling his home with songs that brought joy to him and those around him. Bill also had a love of art, finding beauty and inspiration in a wide array of creative expressions.
Bill's legacy is one of kindness, dedication, and love for life that touched everyone who had the privilege of knowing him. He will be deeply missed by his family, friends, patients, and the entire community, but his spirit will live on in the lives he enriched and the hearts he touched.
Visitation Tuesday, July 8th, from 10am-1pm followed by a Service at 1pm at Wujek - Calcaterra & Sons Inc., (Shelby) 54880 Van Dyke at 25 Mile Rd.

Dr Cook treated me off and on for over 30 years. Many times my lower back would put me in such pain I could hardly walk. Where others pushed me to have surgery, Dr Cook always got me pain free and walking again. He was more than just my doctor. He was my friend. RIP my friend.

I am heartbroken by the loss of my dear friend. We spent so many years together, sharing countless conversations, laughter, and the quiet moments in between that only friends understand. His absence leaves a space that can´t be filled, not only for those of us who were lucky to call him a friend but also for the entire chiropractic community, which has lost a dedicated advocate and steady presence. His passion for helping others, his commitment to his profession, and his kindness will be remembered always. I will miss him deeply.

Dr.Cook introduced me to the wonderful healing available through chiropractic care. While doctors said possible MS...Dr. Cook found the problems provided his knowledge and helping touch.. and I experienced new health. Of course I had to share chiropractic care with my children and lots of friends. Thank you Dr.Cook for sharing the alternative with me and so many others. Sandra Timco
