Family, Friends & Fellow Officers Remember...

One just needs to look in the mirror before judging others. Our world would be a better place if humanity looked more humane and humble. Perhaps violence and its evil might take note. Unfortunately, wickedness spares no one and does not differentiate between day and night. At all times, at all moments the barrage of bad comes and strikes at all sides and every end possible. Its might is the core of its strength and many have come and tried, too many have given their lives for serenity, security and the sense of peace and purpose to co -exist as one. Here in Dade County you were counted on, Officer Cook, to deliver some roots of harmony along with possessing and maintaining dignity, honesty and integrity of character the staples of both your life and public service career. We are forevermore indebted to your heroism and inspirational ingenuity and intuitiveness. The roads are wide, the trails are narrow, with your ferocity and tenacity tyranny was slightly decreased, though your absence leaves that pit, the wide hole your family has had to dig through to fruitfully champion your noble legacy of elegance and effort. Time honors you, Officer Cook, a brave soul who took up the causes of goodwill willingly and without regret nor hesitation. Rest in peace my neighbor, friend and hero.

Quirks are one thing. perks are for executives, those big shots whose models of modesty and honesty don't even sniff or come close to your humbleness and honor, Officer Cook. You served and were a soldier who learned under the best and then demonstrated the capacity to motivate and lead other brave souls through mayhem and kayos. Dade County is a large area not like New York, but surely just as dignified and its people wanted a framework of goodwill, peace and some semblance of unification for all. They gained your loving trust and humility through the mandates of mettle, integrity, dignity and character which helps to build the central cores of honesty. You cannot begin to stop violence if you cannot be civilized and noble.

Rest in peace my neighbor, friend and hero.
