Default A word about Zooker.

Every time I read something that mentions Zooker, I always start remembering when. And that got me to thinking, so I did a little experiment. For those of you who didn't have the pleasure to know the man, this simple exercise will show you exactly what he meant to those of us who knew him. Go to the search tab. Type in the name Zooker, and click on threads, and see just how many times he is mentioned. You will see just what an impact he made on those of us here in the forums who knew him, and even some who didn't!

I can remember Kevin describing Zooker as a gentle giant. That's seems to be an accurate description of Zook.

Zooker...Zooker...Zooker - I'm tired of hearing about him...NOT!
I'm just sorry I never got to know him, but it's great that he lives on in the memory's of so many friends and loved ones. We'll never know why so many good people are taken from us way too soon. Perhaps it's to make us realize that no matter how many years it is, our time here is short and we should make the most of what we have. In the end, it's not the jobs we had, how many hours we worked or the money we made, it's the people we touched that will remember us fondly.

He is missed greatly. The board sorta went downhill after he left. He was like the alpha dog who snapped at people, myself included, and kept things in line.
