Russell J. Hook age 48 of Pompton Plains died Sunday, June 4, 2006 at the Saint Josephs Wayne Hospital, Wayne.
He was a lifelong resident of Pompton Plains.
Russell graduated from Pequannock Township High School, Pequannock with the class of 1976.
He was a production worker for the Mulhern Belting Corporation, a rubber and belting products company, Oakland for the past fourteen years.
Russell enjoyed camping, saltwater fishing and had a special love for his Boston Terrier “Skipper”.
As was known by many, Russell was diagnosed with a malignant tumor at the age of eleven years. Due to the many side effects of his cancer, the surgery, radiation and chemotherapy treatments, he had many trials and difficulties that were unknown to family and friends. He persevered and led as normal a lifestyle as was possible for himself, working his whole life except for the last six months. He could be and should be a role model to many to persevere through trials they may have to endure. He cherished his family and wanted the best for all of them.
Beloved son of Sophia (nee Verblaauw) Hook of Wyckoff formerly of Pompton Plains, and the late John J. Hook(1978); devoted brother of Wayne Hook and his wife Mieke of Pequannock, Joyce DeRuiter and her husband Don of Pompton Plains, Ralph Hook and his wife Maria of Pequannock, Donald Hook and his wife Debbie of Lancaster, PA and Allen Hook and his fiancé Marnie of Pompton Plains; much loved uncle of ten nieces and nephews and fifteen great-nieces and nephews.
