“Carole departed in peace and comfort having lived a long and wonderful life doing the work that she loved.”
She was known as a star of stage, TV and screen but just three days before her 99th birthday, Carole Cook took her final bow.
Cook, whose career dates from the 1950s and who blossomed after she was mentored by comedy legend Lucille Ball, died of heart failure in Beverly Hills at 1:58 p.m. Wednesday at the age of 98, Cook’s husband, actor Tom Troupe, announced via an agent.
“Carole departed in peace and comfort having lived a long and wonderful life doing the work that she loved. She made many friends, and I know they will all miss her spirit, humor, and talent on the stage, and for life in general. And that’s pretty great.” Cook got her start in Hollywood when mentor Ball requested her comedic talents for the 1959 episode of Ball’sThe Lucy Show
