<VV> Starr Cooke Passing

Wed Nov 15 21:36:27 EST 2023

Yes Starr Cooke passed on October 27. He was a very good friend of mine for 40,years and he was one of the most talented guys that I have even known. I was out in California helping Larry Shapiro at his shop for a week and Starr flew his helicopter up to Long Beach to see me.
The Corvair Community lost a real good guy.

I might be late on this, but don't recall reading anything letting folks know that Starr Cooke from California passed away recently from cancer that was discovered at stage 4 about 5-6 months ago, I think. He said he tried every treatment available with no results. He will be missed.
