At the time, oldest brother, Bill, was serving in the Navy while other brother, Jack, was a sophomore in high school. Youngest sibling, Kathy, was oblivious to the meaning of war and was simply missing her ‘Buddy.’ Mom and Dad, Dolores and Bill Cook, were the anchors and guiding lights in a family that was very much like other families living in suburban Philadelphia during that challenging and difficult time of war in Vietnam and life on the home front. Today, the author enjoys reading, taking long walks on the beach and getting together with family and friends, especially at the Jersey shore.ver menos
