“Hey, Harry! I’ve got a great story for you,” a friend told me recently. “You need to call Phillis Cook; she lives in Centre and is an amazing artist who paints pictures of K-9 dogs that have given their lives in service to their city, county, state or country.”
And therein lies a beautiful story of one of our seniors doing a special work, nationally, without pay. “It’s just something I love to do,” Cook told me when I called.
Her first name is Diana, but she has always gone by her middle name of Phillis.
She‘s an Attalla girl by birth, a graduate of Etowah High School and a 30-year veteran of the BellSouth Corporation. Cook was in the executive ranks when retirement came in 1995.
