Not sure what to say?

He was my 5th grade teahcer in 2005. So sorry to hear about this loss.

Mr. Brock tought me in the fifth grade at Hunt Intermediate school. He first sparked my interest in history which has earned me a free ride to college. I hope to honor him by becoming a teacher myself. My prayers are with his family and friends. May God bring you all through the hard times ahead.

Dear Faye and Family,
We were in Colorado when the news came about Jordon and we know you've had company since his death. We'll be in touch when you have a more quiet time. May happy memories bring some measure of comfort. Love y'all! ~Jerry and Ann~

Christy & Family,
I just heard the news about your Dad and was unaware of his condition. I am so very sorry for your loss. You and your entire family will be in my thoughts and prayers during this difficult time.

Your Family is in my Prayers...

Mr.Brock was my most favorite teacher of all. He was kind to the class and I. Mr.Brock would play around with us. Most of everyone at school liked him. He was funny to. I was shy around Mr.Brock at first, but then he brighten me up. One time Mr.Brock had a pool party at his house. That made the class, Mr.Brock, and I very very very happy.

I am so sorry to learn that Mr.Brock lost his battle with the "Big C". I caught a glimpse of him at Market Street Festival, and he looked so well; I had great hopes that he would beat it. Mr. Brock was an outstanding teacher, and a great role model for his male students. I very much enjoyed working with him. My thoughts are with you all.

I was in Mr.Brocks first class his first full year at Caledonia. At first I was very nervous to have a male teacher but after getting to know him, Mr.Brock became not only one of my favorite teachers but one of my dearest friends. I always went to his room the last day of school and we talked for a long time. He is greatly missed not only by Caledonia students but by myself as well. I love you Mr.Brock

TO FAYE AND ALL THE FAMILY, SO VERY SORRY FOR YOUR LOSS. OUR PRAYERS AND THOUGHTS ARE WITH YOU ALL AT THIS TIME. MAY GOD HOLD YOU CLOSER DURING THIS TIME. TOM AND JUDY YOUNGER
