All departments and the general public wants is accountability, responsibility,civility and a little sacredness.

A stack of pancakes in syrup and butter sure tastes great. A better taste is honor,integrity and dignity serving up its pitches to defeat mayhem,chaos and colossal misfortune on those sometimes dangerous roads. Your job was made a bit more uneasy, Officer Cook, that somber and awful day when evil ripped your family's hearts out of their chests. Yours was taken by a man just so cowardly and gutless,no respect or character. Dade County has not overlooked nor forgotten its hero of humility whose reservoirs of faith and hope still funnel their ways into society.
