James (Cowboy) Hook

January 30, 1933 — December 12, 2016

James Carl Hook, better known as Pappa, Cowboy, & "Ford Tough," was an amazing man, with a personality just as big as his heart. He not only worked on Ford's, but drove them his whole life. He was on the horse show circuit for 25 years, winning 1976 "Horseman of The Year ," 8 State Championships, & 3 World Qualifiers. He was a US Army veteran & in the Richland County Sheriff's Posse. He loved drag racing, NASCAR, Gamecock Football, & COUNTRY MUSIC. He also loved spending time with his family, hunting & fishing in Orangeburg & in Alabama. Amongst his love for his wife, kids, grandkids, great grandkids, brother, etc... He adored his little dog, "SHORTY." Even though he entered into The Kingdom of Heaven & is now, with his Lord & Savior, Jesus Christ... He'll forever be missed, by those still here, that adored him. HAPPY TRAILS TO YOU COWBOY.
