Jean Moore Cook, a long time resident of Rochester, MN, died November 15, 1998 at the age of 91. She was born June 1, 1907 in Fulton, MO, but spent most of her early years in Minneapolis and graduated from the University of Minnesota. On June 14, 1934 she married Dr. Edward Noble Cook. They lived in Rochester, where Dr. Cook served at the Mayo Clinic. Mrs. Cook was active in many community organizations, including the Calvary Episcopal Church, Kappa Kappa Gamma Sorority, and the Methodist Hospital.

Dr. and Mrs. Cook were long time visitors and residents at Ten Mile Lake, first as guests of Dr. and Mrs. Art Hunt for many years. In 1962 Al Woock built them their own cabin on the Northwest shore. The Cook cabin is now occupied by their youngest daughter and her family. Mrs. Cook=s fondest memories for many years included her friends on Ten Mile Lake, the birch trees of Ten Mile, and her daily (weather not even permitting) swim. While she slowed down the last few years of her life, she was able to enjoy Ten Mile up until just a couple of years before her death.

Survivors include two daughters, Margaret Cook Berndt of Charlottesville, VA, and Nancy Cook Nelson of Denver, CO; a son, Edward Noble Cook Jr., of New Mexico; and five grandchildren.

Elizabeth 'Betty' Lee, of Wayzata, MN, and a summer resident of Ten Mile Lake for 60 years, died of respiratory failure Monday, July 24, at Hillcrest Healthcare Center in Wayzata, MN.

Betty was born February 11, 1908 in Boone, IA, to Charles and Margaret (Conn) Rhodes. In 1931 she married C. D. 'Chick' Lee. She taught high school for two years in Colo, IA, and was a member of First Congregational United Church of Christ, Delta Delta Delta Sorority, American Legion Auxiliary, Iowa Veterans Medical Auxiliary, and Order of the Knoll.

Betty first came to Ten Mile Lake in 1920, with her parents and her sister. They came from Boone, IA, and stayed on Boone Point. Betty and Chick honeymooned on Cass Lake, but soon began to spend their summers in one of Al Woock's cabins on the South Shore, built for them. In 1966 the Lees bought the former Johnson cabin in Fernhurst, and Chick and Betty spent summers there until Chick's death in 1993. The cabin is now the summer residence of daughter Ann and her husband, Don Harris.

Mrs. Lee is survived by one son, Bill (Margy) of Skaneateles, NY; two daughters, Ann (Don) Harris of Plymouth and Peggy (Tom) Koch of Dunwoody, GA; eight grandchildren; and 16 great-grandchildren. She was preceded in death by her husband, two sisters, and one grandson.

Charles H. Manlove, III, M.D., died on June 30, 2000 of complications of leukemia, at the age of 78. He had been a general surgeon in St. Paul, MN.

Dr. Manlove was born on an American Army base in the Philippines, where his father was a pathologist. He graduated Phi Beta Kappa from Reed College in Portland, OR before earning his medical degree at the University of Oregon Medical School in the mid-1940's. He served two years in the Air Force and was a flight surgeon at Ladd Air Force Base in Fairbanks, Alaska, before moving to St. Paul, MN. While serving his internship and residency at Anker Hospital in St. Paul, Dr. Manlove became the city's fencing champion in 1946. He retired from the Mayo Clinic in 1991, but continued to serve as a volunteer doctor at St. Mary's Carondelet Clinic in West St. Paul.

In addition to fencing, Dr. Manlove enjoyed tennis (which he continued to play three times a week), music, genealogy, and spending summers at his cabin on Ten Mile Lake. He had traced his family roots to the year 1000, and learned that his grandfather and great-uncle were professional baseball players in the early 1900's. He studied piano as a boy, developed an early love of opera, and served on the Metropolitan Opera National Council for 20 years.

Dr. Manlove is survived by his wife, Catherine; children Mary C., Dr. Jeffrey (Deborah), and Christopher (Cathy Marshik); and one granddaughter.
