You were surely, Officer Cook, a deserving young man who followed your dreams and tried to set Dade County and its citizens up forever in stability. Trust, faith and goodwill shares in those humble burdens. It still is up to each recruit to carry their own weight.

I don't look at police work as an odyssey. It may be an adventure going out there and trying your utmost to secure peace and whatever else combines to make stability as good as it gets. Dade County was under siege from tensions racial and on that lousy and terrible day a domestic incident in which three Metro-Dade Officers were shot by a crazed and wicked man. Your life had reason, Officer Cook and so did it contain integrity, honor and desire that made your travels more valuable. So versatile and full of vigor, a life gone before anyone could offer a goodbye. They came to your Inspector's Funeral on May 19th to say so long to a man of virtuous character, the composure of courage, the wisdom that only humility can bring to a hero so loved and cherished.
