Family, Friends & Fellow Officers Remember...

Grudges are for those lacking maturity. They bog down good old fashioned bravery, honesty and boldness. The kind most public servants display, they don't need direction nor prodding. You took your roles, Officer Cook and went out on the streets of Dade County looking to proclaim that peace and harmony were the order of the day and not turmoil and terror. A great big shame Mr. Pearsall, the man who took your life did not get this message. Discipline and dignity go together with faith, desire and integrity. This must accompany all police in their vehicles of valor and vigilance. The sadness of your humility, Officer Cook, is that we cannot physically see you anymore, it's your spirit and immortal soul circling over us observing our going and coming. They carry a humble onus and that is to carry on with the very same determination, character and dedication that you utilized to enhance our world and that is very much missed. Heroism and sanctity go humbly hand in hand and your efforts, Officer Cook, won't be forgotten only so humanely saluted for greatness of heart and for bringing trust back to a downtrodden community. Rest in peace my neighbor, friend and hero.
