Dave worked with me for 5 years in the early 80’s. Simply put, when Captain Dave Cook was working-the job got done-be it supervising/leading/taking care of the troops or taking care of the public. He is what any member would want as a boss-and any boss would want on duty. In his career he’s been a fire officer, ECC shift Captain and HazMat instructor.
Dave (59 years old) has been diagnosed with inoperable cancer(s) and has been given just a few months. He has health insurance but the treatment deductibles and related “not covered” costs are mounting significantly. I am doing this fundraiser so he and his family get a little financial help while dealing with this terrible situation.

Praying for you, Dave! We worked together at ECC in the mid-80s until I moved to EMS, but continued to "work" together in the First Responder community long afterwards. I rejoined the community 25+ years ago working with vehicle and equipment manufacturers, largely based on the hole left in my heart for being around people like you. Godspeed on your journey!
Reply from David Cook9 months agoThank You Scott, I remember our work at ECC, long time ago.
We where together on the Longboat Key fire / rescue back in 1980 and on, and had a great time helping people. Love you Dave!
