Dr Cook actually helped me change my life by offering a way to express my spiritual understanding through his delivery of sermons stat were biblically based and thought provoking.
I was saddened by his departure but not alone in the thinking behind his sermons. With the local guidance of Bishop Lee Moore, I received the best Christian education a person could easily incorporate into righteous thinking.

I only learned of Dr. J.L. Cook passing this morning. I was stunned, he and I have enjoyed many conversations over the 5 years we have known each other. I was impressed and moved by his genuine concern for myself and others, he always demonstrated a keen desire to help me with what ever was asked of him. I considered him a real friend and Brother in Christ, and a tireless co-labor in the harvest field of the Lord. I will surely miss Dr. Johnny Lee Cook and look forward to seeing him again in...

I have never known a man more kind and gentle than Dr. J. L. Cook. He loved everybody regardless of race, color or creed. If you were a human being, he loved you. I am so thankful our lives crossed. He was such an inspiration to me. Every time I went to the Graduation, he was so happy to see me. He always had time for me. He even came to Albany, GA at his expense to help me promote our School. We went on TV, and he spoke on behalf of the School. He made me feel so proud. I loved him...
