Family, Friends & Fellow Officers Remember...

Evil seems to burn us and and constantly torment us with its sickly perpetual motions. Police must always be on guard and never let their priorities down. They must move in and stop violence before it victimizes others. It's in their genes of gallantry and good and righteous resilience to curb these master beasts. Their boldness differs from that of a duly honest servant of integrity and character. Dade County residents were under a vast scope of your vision and wisdom, Officer Cook, our hero and protector. The public and your colleagues should all be saluted for bravery and commitment that stays etched in our hearts forever. Rest in peace my neighbor, friend and hero.
