Adam Cook, the older brother of American Idol winner David Cook, passed away Saturday after a ten year battle with brain cancer.
“I actually lost my brother yesterday to a brain tumor and I couldn’t imagine being anywhere else right now,” Cook said Sunday morning at the 12th annual Race for Hope in Washington, D.C.
The 37-year old appeared in the Idol audience many times to support David over the course of season seven, while David constantly dedicated songs and performances to his brother.
“I lost one today,” Cook announced at the race, “but I gained 9,000 [supporters] and I will be here every year that they will have me.”
