I have known Jere for many years as Doctor Magic. Him and his wife "Mrs. Magic" were always fabulous at their shows at the Orange Park library. All of us here will miss you and are sending prayers and thoughts to the Cook family.

I was serving in the Florida Air National Guard Fire Department when Col. Cook joined the 125th Civil Engineering Unit. He was a well-respected Officer and leader. May the Peace of Our Lord be with the family and friends in this time of great sorrow.

Amazing man and amazingly sad to read he is gone. We were remembering him just last night (Christmas in Avondale was in the process of being washed out) and he had performed at that event for our daughter’s 7th birthday! She just turned 23 …. We loved seeing Patty and Jere ride everywhere on their tandem bike. The world was a better place because of him. Our love is with you all. Steph, Tom and Sidney Welchans
