Heaven help us if dignity, integrity and respect for mankind's honor and humility becomes extinct. It can never become that way! Your goals and earthly directions, Officer Cook, were proudly, practically and most proficiently steered by The Man Himself. He no needs bows or hints of any kind. His daily watch over us is constant and never contrived. For a man born with truth, trust and tenacity, Officer Cook, your days, weeks, months and years of vitality and virtue were certainly praised and blessed.

One person can cause the biggest of ruckuses and if Mr. Pearsall could have taken responsibility and utilized his brain's resources more things might have turned out differently for all concerned that awful day of May 16, 1979 when you made, Officer Cook, the ultimate sacrifice to be fondly and without a doubt solemnly remembered and wisely saluted for unselfish bravery when accountability came your direction.

A part of a hero's family, comrades and friends depart with them when heaven calls one back home. You had much more to live for, Officer Cook, a valiant individual and a true gentleman who defended the honor, integrity and dignities of Dade County's own. By your willingness and freedom of choice did you become a stellar and staunch law enforcement professional whose pride and excellence lied in your feats of ferocity and expeditions of experience and know how. A true and loyal friend to all I can see why Mr. and Mrs. Cook, your darling, heroic and most beloved "Billy," was revered, admired and greatly respected by all mankind, society and humanity. Humility is not just a gift handed out , rather it is received by one whose life and career of credence lends itself to the everyday challenges that place at times peril and its obstacles of wickedness before its troops who engage such a brutal force, a monster who has no sympathy, empathy or whatever compassion is there to be had. Rest in peace my neighbor, friend and hero along with your most wonderfully beloved parents in God's loving palms cradled with courage, care and kindness and devout character.
