History should not repeat itself. Violence and turbulent times shall never unseat humanity's decency. But it happens sadly, tragically and for no logical reasons whatsoever. Your untimely passing in the line of duty, Officer Cook, represented a sacrifice of more than courage and character. It did not tarnish your uniform and badge of dignity and authenticity. It only made our resolve a part of your heroic life and gave all the definition to the words dignity and stellar integrity. Having the gumption to join forces with other fine and most accomplished men and women to complete a task of tremendous onus. And to unseat evil on Dade County's behalf saving life and giving back harmony and togetherness where they belong.

Dade County seldom has seen the likes of a refreshing man of commitment and conviction who wrapped his unique intellect around the problems that confront, confound and at times confuse mankind.

The clock should never have ceased running, Officer Cook. As your life and humble career as a public servant toward Dade County had much more left to achieve. Though, during your twenty-five years of living and nurturing relationships you accomplished more than some who live to that ripe age of being a centenarian. It was 2:11pm, when you were violently taken from your adoring family and colleagues, time does not stand still. It's your honor and gallant actions that dignified your integrity on behalf of those wanting peace and resolve. A candid and upfront individual who cared for his community and demonstrated the highest degree of character and humbleness for mankind. Saluted and never forgotten. Rest in peace my neighbor, friend and hero. I think in some police jargon, a 2-11 is an armed robbery. Well your family and country were heinously robbed of your handsomeness and beautiful smile. It's heaven's gift for having you as a Godsend and as a warrior of a heroic legacy. They are not to be passed over nor just skimmed at!
