Dear Cook Family. So sorry to hear of Bill’s passing. I knew Bill from his golfing days at Ontario Golf Club. He would call the Pro Shop and asked if it was a good time to come out!! I would have his cart parked near the entrance to the Pro Shop ready to go. He would come in with that infectious smile and ask me “Jim...front nine or back nine”? And off he went! We will miss him.
