Family, Friends & Fellow Officers Remember...

The constellations and stars are properly aligned. For those cherished and honorable, brave and humble, let us hope and pray they can stay that way for their entire career. It is not a one hour venture, it lasts eight or perhaps many more hours of integrity and staunch dignity that is necessary to get past violence and eliminate evil once and for all. Dade County was pretty fortunate to have a hero like you, Officer Cook. Sturdy, steady, self-confident and calm during tenseful times. May 16, 1979, was surely the day of reality and your performance was outstanding saving life and protecting more than we could ever be grateful for. Your service came at the ultimate price, your life of humility, your aspirations of astuteness, your character crusading around the corners of a community where danger and peril hide behind the bushes where brazen obstruct the peaceful flow of ferocity. Never a day goes by and you are not highly and humanely thought of. Rest in peace my neighbor, friend and hero.

Stretching for serenity, reaching for resolve, never deserting dignity nor shunning the spotlight, your career and life, Officer Cook, was predicated on the proclamation of principles and the integrity that good character can bring into the jungles of wildness and pandemonium. Plenty of unwanted racial tension and strife during your watch over Dade County and its people. So you adjusted, acclimated and evaluated. Excellence in wisdom, vision and the guises of humility and civility. It was the treatment for sanctity to continue once again. Always saluted and treasured for being a loyal and faithful servant.

You can accomplish anything you set your heart to do. Saving and preserving life is not piece of cake. For thousands of years police have encountered difficulties in performing their jobs, why? Because either they were not trained adequately enough or they strayed from those pathways of honor and integrity. Their dignity and desire was interrupted by a fixation on committing evil themselves. We here in Dade County have been most blessed and rewarded at the very same time by the numerous heroes and heroines of the law enforcement field. You were a part of that great surge of security and peace, Officer Cook, duly honorable and proud to wear your uniform and badge of bravery and its undeniable boldness through your character, humility and the heroism that drives the mechanisms of mettle. You'll be reverently saluted and humanely so deservedly honored, Officer Cook, for patience, prudent measures during times of violence and practical maneuvers that saved the citizens and your comrades that May 16, 1979 day we , your family, peers and friends lost a proverbial hero of relevance and trustworthiness.

I meant to say, Officer Cook, that right is a part of civilization's mantra. Teaching right and doing right are certainly two separate things. Integrity and intelligence, intuition and ingenuity are as important as good common sense and the wisdom of vision, dignity and honesty. How on earth can one devoted young man chase after peace turning wickedness in wonderful welcoming harmony if character and certain moral traits are absent from the picture? 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. This community, this nation, this society has an obligation to provide a tranquil setting for the people living here, you did that, Officer Cook, humble and heroically admired.

You took care of your professional business, Officer Cook, here in Dade County as a true and trusted hero.
