Cousins Convene in Jacksonville

Will Bookhout and Greg Fieg visited Jack and Mary Wolcott for a dinner engagement in the Woolcotts’ hometown of Jacksonville, FL on April 7.

Jack, chief financial officer for Blood Alliance – a non-profit organization that collects, processes and distributes blood in the community – is counting down the days toward his pending retirement, and Mary is now a domestic goddess.

Jack took Will for a spin in his 19’ Bowrider, which he and Mary regularly take up the St. John’s River for the amusement of their four grandchildren. The open boat is ideal for fishing and swimming and features a 200 h.p. inboard motor.

Will also visited with his son Daniel and daughter-in-law Jenny in St. Augustine, where Daniel is full-time youth pastor at the Good News Presbyterian Church. He continues to maintain the Bookhout law practice in Oneonta while residing in Cazenovia after having recently sold his former home in Laurens. His associate, Hollie Jaffe, recently returned to the firm after an extended personal leave.

Will, who is the son of the late Judge Richard J. Bookhout, Otsego Co. surrogate judge, has maintained the practice for more than three decades. He is a graduate of St. John’s University Law School in N.Y.C.
