Family, Friends & Fellow Officers Remember...

Succumbing to fear will only make evil attack us more. Its front and rear so nasty and brutal, that is the reason as to why visionary and wisely brave women and men must know how to defend themselves and to counterattack its advances. An adversary of monumental mischief, that surely needs public servants on their toes of tenacity fighting back. Your character and honor, Officer Cook, fought gallantly and most ably on our behalf. Dade County can indeed look back all these decades later after you gave your life and career with distinction, integrity and maturity to usher in a most welcomed peace and harmony, tranquility and liberty, the justice, fairness and firmness that is not only dictated by society, it is demanded of all servants young and old. All bold and game with a humane story to be retold. And one day when time allots those stories of great heroes and heroines can be distributed and shared by mankind. Rest in peace my neighbor, friend and hero.

One strike by lighting could spell curtains. Lady luck striking once or even twice maybe unthinkable. Nothing better than a young gallant man's self-confidence and humbleness embellishing humanity on humility's request. Dade County and its citizens were seeking out some shelter and the serenity that can only revive its ingenuity and intuition. Your intelligence, thoughtful insight and innovative approaches, Officer Cook, helped to lessen the pain of evil pushing through our very own souls. You put a little honor, dignity and integrity together and you've got a positive result, though sadly on May 16, 1979, a very dark day for your family members and loyal comrades, we lost you to unmitigated and heinous violence by a young man bent to strike at the wise and visionary hearts of the establishment that was responsible for service and preservation of all life and property here in Dade County. Nothing worse than a badge of boldness being grabbed and robbed of its greatness and happiness. Your assets, Officer Cook, were far and wide as were your resources of resolve, resiliency and response. Rest in peace my neighbor, friend and hero. Truly a hero as the saying of greater love have no man who gives his life for his friends. I'm sure to this day, Officers DiGenova, Edgerton, Reserve Officer Lincoln and Detective Blocker have thought about you, your heroism and generosity. A gregarious man and a pleasantly big and beautiful smile to match that is very much missed now and forevermore.
