In September of 2005,Mike Cook passed away after battling cancer for over six years.Next to his wife,Sandy and two sons and daughter,no one will miss him more than I.
We met in the fourth grade (Wirtz elementary),and within two years, we were best of friends.We discovered the Beatles together, and loved them in spite of their popularity.

Mike (lead guitar/vocals),Terry Coniglio (drums/vocals), and Richard Marx (bass /guitar/vocals)were members of the first group I ever got to play in.
BTW,Terry and I would like to locate Richard Marx,...Anyone??
