Early Life

The Cooke family used to get together, often. There was music, singing, Uncle Ernie played the banjo really well, my Dad the violin, Aunt Eva, piano. She had a strong voice and sang in the church choir. (Anglican – Transcona) Her son Tom had a lovely boy soprano voice. He continued to sing, but had too much vibrato as an adult. :)
