BG (Ret) Cocroft will be missed my many. This man gave his all to the Army Reserve as well as soldiers. I am very proud to have served with him. He will be missed by family, friends and Soldier who path have crossed RIP Sir!

Bob will be greatly missed. Bob was a kind and generous man, a dedicated, knowledgeable soldier. Bob served his nation and fellow veterans his entire adult life. His passing is a loss to all military veterans whom he served so well. Condolences to his family.

With all of our love,
