Joker175 Posted June 28, 2006 Report Share Posted June 28, 2006 I am sorry to inform you all of the sad passing of Mike Hook today For those of you who dont know he is the promotor of Standlake Arena. I have known Mike for many years(spent first 11 months of me life living on his farm) And it has come as a great great shock. I would like to offer my support to all his family and just to say how much he will be missed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
