Welcome Image


Welcome!  I have linked many images within these pages.  I'm hoping you will take the time to view some of the different pages, and look at a few of the images.  I've assembled this WEB Site to share my life with others using images. Before you get started here's a picture of my wife Paulette and me with our dog Cookie, then one of me working on this web page. A Special Note! We miss you Casey May.

I was born in 1941 on "The Day That Will Live In Infamy."  I grew up in Columbus, Ohio and graduated from South High School.  I enlisted in the Navy during the summer of '61 and during my four years of service, I was assigned to the USS Lake Champlain CVS-39, USS York County LST-1175, and the USS Vermilion AKA-107.  Be sure to view my Navy page for some great ship pictures and at sea videos.

Below are links to the different areas within my WEB Site.  Please E-Mail me (cookt@ohio.edu) with your comments and suggestions.   Most of all, if you have additional images of South High School or Navy service on any of the three ships listed on my Navy page, I would be glad to add them too!    



Note!  In 2008, my brother Greg Cook from the South High class of 1957, sponsored a public Pow Wow in the Hocking Hills honoring Chief Logan.   His next public Pow Wow is scheduled for August 1st and 2nd near Rockbridge, OH on the hill behind the large flea market at the intersection of SR33 and SR374 with free primitive camping.  Like last year, you'll see native American dancers and drums.  While there, try some Native foods like fry bread, plus you will have the opportunity to purchase some native American crafts.
The Grand Entry to dance arena will be at 12 noon on both days. The MC again this year will be Warrior Brian Darst.
