Take heed and pay close and careful attention to those carrying out your assigned duties. Your comrade, friend and cherished peer of perseverance, resolve and resourcefulness, Officer William C. Cook, was a prideful gentleman of gallantry and of action, heroic and honorable in Dade County where he loyally served and protected our stability and reasons why we need to live essentially in quiet and in togetherness. His character and humble stature secured permanent enhancement where violence and mayhem carried out their atrocities and where he gave his total attention to the primary matters at hand.

Conclusions are nothing new. It is how our beginnings unwind. Does our life have humbleness and honesty? Is valor and a free spirit of happiness an accentuation? Is character and real hard working commitment just another thing or is there some seriousness being contemplated? If you put traits in your tenacity and morals into meaning, I suspect Dade County and its people were under the very watchful and guiding eyes of peace and harmony that you provided us with, Officer Cook. Undying, unwavering, no conditions, just true, faithful and determined leadership that carried all your fruitful journeys where Our Lord's destinies came calling. At the tender young age of twenty-five and very mature above others, God took you back with Him to peruse His golden and sacred paved roads where resolve and effort are perfect, no imperfections.
