Thomas M. "Tom" Bate (3 August 1934 - 2 August 1989) was a son of Eva Cooke.
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. :)
