OP Though 95 years is a nice long age for anyone to reach, I'm still sad that Alistair Cooke has died. He was an intelligent, clever man. I enjoyed listening to him and reading his writings when I had a chance. He was self-made in many ways, coming from a rather common background.
Please check out his obituary here:

I'd highly recommend listening to the World Service tribute audio link on the upper right of the page.
And you can listen to his last Letter From America here:
