Dennis Geoffrey Cocke (June 2, 1924 – July 2, 2008) sat as a Member of the British Columbia Legislature as a New Democratic Party member from 1969 to 1986 for the seat of New Westminster.

He grew up on a farm in Athabasca, Alberta and served in the Royal Canadian Air Force during World War II.

In that capacity he created the BC Ambulance Service, replacing a patchwork of private and municipal enterprise with a province-wide system, professional standards and certification, and with newly designed and purpose-built ambulance vehicles.

[1] He died at the age of 84 at the Royal Columbian Hospital after suffering a stroke.
