The following set of photographs were taken from the Bradford Witness August 21, 1957 edition, highlighting the Bradford Centennial parade and celebrations. This Centennial float was made by the Bradford Council of 1957.
"Bradford Council for 1964-65, returned by acclamation for 1966-67, from left to right: Councillor Kenneth Tupling, Councillor Oswald Davey, Reeve R. Bruce Stewart, Mayor Joseph Magani, Deputy Reeve Fred C. Cook, Councillor Tom Evans, Councillor Fred Dow."
"He was a special kind of man. A ready smile, a razor-sharp wit and a concern for his fellow man.... these were the engaging qualities of Frederick Christopher Cook, town councillor, churchman and fraternal brother. Fred Cook was an unassuming man, who reached out and touched the lives of thousands of people. His dedication to public service as a town councillor will be remembered by the many Bradford ratepayers who came to know him and trust him as a man of honesty and directness. Fred was a warm man, who understood people's problems and did all he could to solve them. Besides his open humbleness, he was a man who was concerned about the future of his community."
