Support the Cook Family After their Heartbreaking Loss

On Sunday, 1st December, the world cruelly took Michael Cook from us at just 34 years young. He leaves behind his beautiful wife Emma and their two precious daughters — Maya, 2 years old, and Lara, just 4 weeks old. This unimaginable loss leaves a hole in the hearts of Emma, their girls, family, and friends that can never be filled.

Michael was a devoted husband and a loving father. His happiest moments were spent at home, by the pool, making cherished memories with Emma and his girls. His love for his family was limitless, and his presence brought warmth and joy to everyone lucky enough to know him.

To his mates, Michael was more than a friend; he was a rock, fiercely loyal, and always ready to help, no matter the size of the challenge. He made you feel important and valued, a rare soul who gave so much of himself to others.

In this time of heartbreaking grief, we are reaching out to ask for your support to help ease the financial burden now faced by Emma and her daughters. Any donation, no matter how large or small, will make a world of difference in helping them navigate this difficult journey.

Please consider donating and sharing this page far and wide, so we can give the Cook family the support they need and deserve. Michael may no longer be with us, but we know he is watching over his girls with pride and gratitude.

The next time you see a shooting star in the night sky, know that it’s Michael — "Cookie" — thanking you for looking out for his family, the ones he loved more than anything.

Rest in peace, Michael. You are deeply loved, and you will be forever missed.
