Hailey Mia Cook was born August 28, 2002 in Pierre, SD to Ian Cook Widow and Colleen Chips. She received her education in Omaha, NE, Lower Brule, Eagle Butte, and graduated from Mitchell in 2020.
Her brothers and sisters were the world to Hailey. She was the glue that kept them together and in touch, as well as the one to always comfort them. She was always on her brothers to be good, and she would keep them in check when they did wrong. She was a beautiful person inside and out and her laugh was out of this world. She was so happy and full of life.
Growing up, Hailey enjoyed time playing basketball and being a pow wow dancer, competing in the jingle dress and fancy shawl. Spending time with family, especially Kailey and Jordan Carter and Keonna and Tyrese Red Bear, was such a treasured time for her.
