I am just heart-broken to hear about Macon. What a marvelous man! I have so many interesting and inspirational memories. I often think of my years at K&K and Dollar Tree and the many many things I learned, about business, about people, about life, about myself, all intertwined and underpinned by Macon's energy and zest. He had such discipline, and such humor (that grin as they shook hands the day that Macon III dressed as Macon for Halloween!). He was truly one-of-a-kind. Joan, you and your...

Joan, I just heard today about Macon's passing. I can so relate as my beloved husband passed over 4 years ago. May you find comfort in your family, his wonderful legacy and in the love and life that you shared.

I just heard about Macon today and wanted to send you my deepest sympathies on his passing. He was an amazing man who showed us all time after time how to live and eventually thrive through adversity. He will be sorely missed.

Macon Brock is the most captivating visionary upfront person with a heart of gold that I have ever met. I will always cherish memories of him along side of the Perry's, Mr Compton, and the start up of Dollar Tree.
Prayers of comfort and love go out to Joan, her family and the Perry's.

Always,

Macon touched so many lives. Once I got to know him ... I was never the same.

Macon didn't just know things, he understood things. He didn't just look ... he would see. This man's life was purposeful and meaningful, filled with love, charity and devotion. A life that truly mattered. You will live in my heart, forever.

Thanks Macon ... I'm a better person for having known you.

"LEAD BY EXAMPLE"

Macon lived a life that made a difference. He set an example for all of us. God bless the Brock family.

My deepest condolences to the family. I had the privilege of working for Dollar Tree for more than a decade before my retirement. Macon had a heart for military and veteran families as well. Thanks to his leadership in offering the opportunity to the Customers of Dollar Tree, more than $100,000,000 in material and financial donations have been made available to the families of those who serve and have served in our Armed Forces. A wonderful man who will be missed. There is a new star shining...
