I've become very good friends with your Mom . I met Mom through a survivors website and said to her you are going to join. Sean would have wanted you to. My son Rick was a LOD back 1997 in Atlanta Ga...your mom is 54 and that's how old I was when Rick was killed. Her and I have so much in common even though I could be her mom. I hope you have met Rick and have a lot of friends. Prayers for you mom and stepdad. They love you so much Sean and Dylan misses you.

On behalf of my family, I extend our sincerest condolences on the grievous loss you suffered when Sean was killed at such a young age in the line of duty..

To the Cookson family, fellow officers, and all who call Sean beloved, my heart goes out to all of you and may you find comfort in your loved ones and your strength in your faith. When my son was killed, the entire law enforcement community in our area embraced us in a circle of love and support, and I know you will receive the same support. It makes the unbearable less torturous, and I pray for your solace. I hope that your family knows that a nation mourned for you.

This reflection is sent with the utmost respect for the dedicated service Deputy Cookson gave to his community and the citizens of Oklahoma , and for the supreme sacrifice he and his family made on March 9, 2017.

I hope that everyone will find comfort in the scripture Acts 24:15-"And I have hope toward God, which hope these men also look forward to, that there is going to be a resurrection of both the righteous and the unrighteous." Until we see our loved ones again in Paradise on Earth, please accept my condolences.
