Dottie C. (Cobb) Couick-Newman, age 78, of Amissville passed away peacefully on June 3, 2020 at the Commonwealth Senior Living at Radford after a long and courageous battle with lung and kidney cancer.
She was born February 28, 1942 in Poca, WV to the late Carl O. Cobb and Mabel C. Landers Cobb. A coal miners daughter with 9 brothers and sisters, Dottie grew up learning how to sew, cook, gardening and dancing with her siblings things she remained passionate about throughout her life. After graduating high school, she took the brave journey from WV and moved to Washington, DC to work for the White House. She retired from the DoD at Vint Hill Farms Station and spent the remainder of her life enjoying things she loved such as fishing, bowling, traveling, basket weaving, sewing, painting, gardening, dancing and so much more. She was talented beyond measure. With an enormous zest for life accompanied by an infectious smile, she always lit up the room.
Survived by her son, John (Cindy) Couick; daughter, Sheree (Joe) LaCasse; and daughter Stephanie Baron. 7 grandchildren Elizabeth Lanning, Joshua Couick, Nathan Couick, Alexander Couick, Benjamin LaCasse, Stephen LaCasse and Brian LaCasse, and 4 great grandchildren Ethan, Christopher, Victoria and Skylar.
