Hugh J. Stock Sr.

Grandpa,
I'm sorry we never really new each-other. I'm glad My Dad got to see you and be there towards your time. I saw a picture Grandma drew of you once and she drew with a touch that comes from such a Love for you, please tell her I said Hi. Your love for music, insane sense of humor and wild eyes Live on, My Dad has them all and so do I ( both a blessing and a curse )The next generation has them too, Logan Stock my little boy - 14 mos. Rest Now, Love Bob

Love to all of you from California. Grandpa Stock always had a good story or joke to tell.

Good Night Gramps, sleep well ,,, and we will all miss you dearly. Remember how he always remembered us? Every year a birthday card ,, I miss that. Im glad you were all there for him. Good night Gramps!

Dad brought us all together and we learned all over agin how much love there is in this family. I am proud to be one of us. Dad was loved by so many people and he loved so many too. It;s all good.

I hope we can all be as fortunate as dad was to leave this planet as gently as he did, surrounded by the people and places he loved the most.
I was blessed to have shared the past few weeks, to see the sweetness that replaced his sometimes kurmudgeonly but always exuberant approach to life.
Thank you all who so lovingly cared for him, especially Karen.
On a walk up Putnam Rd on the day of his passing I saw a million forget me knots and those flowers will always remind me...

Thanks, Dad, for being the best you could be everyday of your life. Say Hi to Mom for us. You and your brothers treat those Heaven folks right, now, ya' hear? Love Fred

Our beloved father has left us in a dignified and gentle way. Our thanks go out to the doctors and nurses who served him well at Olean General Hospital and the wonderful people at Home Care and Hospice of WNY.

Mr. Hugh Stock was an important person in my life. He was the inspiration and motivation for my career in music and education. I will always remember him as a kind, conscientious Band Director and Music Teacher.
Sincerely,
Eugene E Hale

We were privileged to call him H.J. and be a part of his world. We will remember his loving spirit, his big heart and his great sense of humor. With deepest sympathy for the entire family,
