It was an honor to stand for Mr. Cook, who was a wonderful man and was healthy until six months ago. From all I was told, saw, and overheard, he had numerous motorcycles of all makes which he bought or built and/or repaired then sold. One man told me he had a line of them; he'd fix one, move it out, sell it and move up the next - he said it was in his living room. He was a racer who won motorcycle races too. Mr. Cook was a master machinist who could work wonders with anything needed. He will be cremated with his ashes buried in Burholme next to his Grandparents and his dog, Wolf.
