Shared Photo: George Cook

Question

Just adopted this gent minutes ago so I've no idea if he's a distant relative or not. His kind eyes just spoke to me- can you help give life to his profile, "Wiki-Cuzzins?"

I thank you, George thanks you!

Well, the photo is not showing for me, so I went to his profile. He's a gentlemanly looking guy. Bald, but still not too bad.

Great photo. thanks for adopting him

ps. that might actually be white hair there on his head
