In loving memory of

Brian Michael-Scott Cook

July 17, 2003 – July 1, 2024
Lived 20 years
Prairie Grove · Fort Wayne, IN
I hope you hit those gold streets on two wheels... I hope your mansion in the sky's got a ten-acre field... With some mud and some hubs you can lock in... Make some thunder, make 'em wonder how ya got in... Hide your beer, hide your clear from the Man Upstairs... Crank it loud, hold it down till I get there... And when I do, I hope you got some new stories to tell... Till then give heaven some hell
