I was a young boy in the mid 1960's when my father, also an engineer, and Mr. Cook moved their businesses to the building on Enterprise Road.

I will always remember him as a very intelligent and generous person.

My sincerest condolences.

We are very sorry to learn of Mr. Cook's passing. I have had the pleasure of working with William (Bill to all of us in East Tennessee), for many years. He is a great person to work with! I have also always had great respect for his engineering skills. After looking through the picture gallery, it seems he did not fall very far from the tree, very incitful and always looking for continual improvement. Our prayers are with you all during this time as you celebrate Mr. Cook's life! .
