Default A Gift From Zooker's Mom

I recently received a package in the mail from Zooker's Mom, in it was a hand knit stocking cap and a hand written note that said:

I am sending you this gift for winning first place at the Zookerfest. Sorry do not know which year as that info was not given me. Wear it with pride, as Zooker was watching you reel the winner in. Signed Zook's Mom

What a great lady to take the time and make sure that I receive this thoughtful gift. I just finished writing her a thank-you note and hope to be able to meet her one day.

Let's keep Zookerfest going in honor of Zooker and his family.

I got one also, a white one. Woody if I remember correctly these are made from a material not available in the US. These are sweet.

I received one a couple days ago too. What a very nice stocking cap. And for us northern boys, it will sure come in handy. She gave me a dark blue hat which will match my dark blue parka perfectly! Mrs Dickerson is a very sweet lady. I had the great pleasure to spend time talking to her at the Wheeler gathering and loved every minute of our conversation. I have been looking for a hat exactly like this one. Thank you Mrs. Dickerson!!!

That is just way too cool!

Unfortunately, I haven't met her yet, although I called her on Zooker's phone shortly after he passed.

What an amazing conversation with an absolutely wonderful woman!

If any of you remember when I thought I was gonna buy a bass boat down tat way..think it was the Avalanche...I had gotten ahold of John, to remind me of what town she lived in.
Can't wait to meet Momma Z!!!

We will have to make sure Zooker's family gets an invite to the next Zookerfest. I'm sure Mrs. Dickerson would appreciate an invitation.

Yea, I miss Zooker, he used to bust my chops about living up north in the cold. And of course his posts with some good natured ribbing.
