You were employed as a hero of trust, truth and honor. Dignity, integrity and character still seem to be stepped on by unrelenting wickedness that confounds humanity. Your decency and humility, Officer Cook, continue being paid homage to. Valor and the highest esteem all virtuous. Rest in peace my neighbor, friend and hero.

What will always reverberate in and around Dade County forevermore, Officer Cook, will be your stoic and humble honesty and its center of heroism. A man sacrifices his life and love of adventure and even pursuing danger to make taciturn allof our missions. All our pleasures and moments of joy. One sad day and violence that some face more than others and in an instant time seems frozen. Your adherence to rules and principles, the virtues of integrity, character and dignity battling evil all were snuffed out leaving your family, colleagues and the entire world to mourn your tragic loss. Humility, civility and sanctity all violated for whatever Mr. Pearsall held in his perverted mind. You'll be remembered, Officer Cook as an angel so brave and humble. Rest in peace my neighbor, friend and hero.
