Farewell Jim Cook

[FLX Kiter Brad]

I heard Jim Cook passed. Never met him – but I was fortunate enough to chat with him on the phone last year. I know he was a Legend in these parts of the Finger Lakes as one of the early water men. Rest in Peace Cookie.

It’ll be windy some day soon thanks to Jim.

Being a relative newbie in the area, does anybody have any memories of Jim Cook?

Wd

Yes……Jim Cook spent many many early morning sessions with me at Seneca lake riding the thermals over in the park and teaching me the important talent it takes to know and ride the wind…….Jim was one of the best in this sport and I will really miss him…Thank you Jim for all you did for me….I never would have been able to truly appreciate this sport without all those times in the early dawn…Bless you and may you now ride the everlasting wave

Nice post Kinger. Jim was a constant presence welcoming us to his turf for a lot of years at Seneca.
