Reflections for Police Officer William Coleman Cook

Irons press clothing making them look sharper when coming from the dry cleaners. Too bad they cannot take care of the venom on the roads which seems to calculate and simply disturb the very balance of nature. You lived by a code of conduct, Officer Cook, raised in a great home along with your big sister, Nancy and you married a great lady in Karen. No doubts about your honesty, integrity and characters of dignity all heroism, all fond memories of a short but humbly well lived life. Your family, peers and friends all wished you were here with them perpetuating mankind and those very ideals and values for which fruition and happiness join hands together. Rest in peace my neighbor, friend and hero.

The consensus on discipline is that those humble and morally righteous men and women understand that bravery is derived from honesty, dignity and integrity. If one does not possess these humane traits then their trails of trust and truth become distorted. Vision and wisdom lessen further complicating one's searches for peace and serenity. Your wisdom and loyalty, Officer Cook, were the essence of your life and nobly chosen career. Never more resilience, never sounder character and commitment to pride and excellence. mankind and Dade County received a special gift from Our Master in you rmost sweet and immortal soul of distinction. Humanity was sacred and your service, Officer Cook, bore these facts out. Rest in peace my neighbor, friend and hero.

Talent can be terrorized by torment which causes the type of turmoil most public servants never want to witness. You saw everything, Officer Cook, in Dade County and did a remarkable job of keeping calm and the peace during one man's exhaustive rants. His rage robbed you of your life and dignity by which integrity and a man's character and commitment stood humble, heroic and most proud. Your family who is left today can certainly feel blessed as Our Lord rewards your civility, sanctity and nobility chasing after a semblance of harmony on those sometimes hazardous venues and roads where resolution and resolve can result in a positive ending. Just wished May 16, 1979 was that day. heaven has your sweet and genuinely compassionate soul of immortal combat. Rest in peace my neighbor, friend and hero.
