Mr. Hooker was a man of integrity with a passion for the rights and liberties of all. None of us will ever fully know the positive and powerful impact he had on us all. I will always admire Mr. Hooker's passion for civil rights, justice and peace and his final passion, the relief of suffering with dignity. He was a very good man.
