One important person will be missing when a group of longtime friends convene for their tailgating activities prior to the University of Louisville-Boston College football game on October 24.
Harry Cook, a gentle giant and staunch UofL football fan, died shortly after he and his wife Candy pulled into their driveway on Friday following a return trip from Panama City, Florida. His departure comes as a shock to all who know him, a quiet, assuming guy who people liked immediately upon making his acquaintance. He was 50, far too young.
Harry was always among the first to arrive for tailgating at parking spot 878 in Row V in the Green Lot on game days.
