The Gunther. What can I say. Before the Fonze, there was the Gunther. The coolest cat i had ever met at California Concordia College in 1965. His friendship was missing until Facebook came along and I found Gary back in the same neck of the woods I remembered him coming from. While on a business trip to San Diego the two of us had lunch together sometime in 2006. I guessed he would pick me up at the hotel in either a Mercedes or his 1957 Nomad. It was the Mercedes. Shared a lot of old stories and had a great visit. He would always text me on my birthday and vice a versa. His charm, his spirit will be missed. I still quote quotes he used to say all the time. Live on in the Endless Summer RIP Gary Ralph Cook. aka The Gunther.

We were very lucky to have joined families with the Cooks when our daughter, Jenni, married Tyson in 2009. Being a Rotarian, we knew the Cooks for many years and all of the wonderful things they have done for the community. Gary was a great friend. We shared many lunches together and of course, all of the family activities that come from being co-grandparents to Harper; birthdays, holidays and other shared memories.
God Bless You Gary. We miss you, but know you are reunited with your beloved Pat and those who passed before you.

I have not known Gary very long but considered him a good friend which was the way he accepted everyone. I always felt welcome in his presents. I always enjoyed his love of his family. Last and probably least he had one of the smoothest golf swings I have ever seen and I enjoyed our time on the golf course. Gary will be sorely missed and fondly remembered always!
