Some legacies take root and continue to grow for generations. William F. Cooke Elementary School recently honored the memory of its namesake, William "Buzzy" Cooke, by planting a weeping willow tree in his honor. Joined by Buzzy’s wife, Gloria Cooke, and representatives from the Brandywine Red Clay Alliance, Jim Jordan and Kathy Yacucci, the school community came together to celebrate a legacy rooted in academic excellence, community service, and kindness toward all.

Planting trees has long been a special tradition at Cooke. Each year, Buzzy planted a tree alongside the school’s kindergarten students, creating a living reminder of growth, connection, and the generations of learners who pass through its doors. Now, this new weeping willow will stand as a lasting tribute to his impact, growing alongside the students and school community he helped inspire. This year’s school theme, “Ya Gotta Believe,” reflects one of Buzzy’s well-known sayings and serves as a reminder of the power of believing in one another and working together to make the world a better place. 💚

As the tree takes root and grows stronger with each passing year, so will Buzzy’s legacy at William F. Cooke Elementary School. 🌱
