Family, Friends & Fellow Officers Remember...

A tree is pruned periodically to be able to survive and to continue being nourished. Police nurture their communities with an abundance of standards all geared to the public and their survival. A failure to stay honest, dignified and to say the least have respectful character could result in a heaven forbid loss of life. No one wants that and that day no one including your family, Officer Cook, wanted you to be taken suddenly at such a young age with more left to accomplish. Your goals, dreams and aspirations have turned into heroism and inspirations to further mankind and other brave colleagues who go out of their normalcy to risk their souls for harmony. Dade County will never forget you and what you meant and always will to your beloved family, Officer Cook. The righteous are rewarded while the evil shall be punished. Truth and trust marched solidly as one. Rest in peace my neighbor, friend and hero.
