JohnD Posted December 27, 2008 Posted December 27, 2008 I'm sorry to report that our dear friend, Cozy Baker, passed away this morning. I just received the phone call that confirms this terrible news. There are no further details regarding funeral plans or services at this time. I'm sure we'll receive more info as the day progresses. The entire drum corps community has lost a true CHAMPION for the activity and many of us have lost a close friend. Our prayers are with his family and those closest to him as we all grieve this terrible loss. Rest in Peace, Cozy. -john Quote

Tammy and I feel fortunate to have seen him on a couple of his good days over Thanksgiving. We have a heaviness in our hearts after receiving the call from Jerry this afternoon.
