To all the Docking family my warmest best wishes. Jill, I still have many fond memories of you, Tom, Virginia and other family members I was fortunate enough to have made the acquaintance of during my time in Kansas. Take care.

Jill, I am often taken back by fond memories of you, Tom and, of course, who could ever forget Virginia. I deeply regret that you and your children had to lose Tom so early. I hope you are all doing well.

Still remembered and still appreciated. R I P

Hi! Docking Family we just found out Tom is gone we are so sorry for your loss. We enjoyed getting to know Tom at the passover gatherings we enjoyed the time we got to spend with the family.

So sorry to hear about Tom passing away too soon! I remember him as a Beta at KU while I was a Theta living next door. My prayers and thoughts are with you and your family. Rest In Peace Tom.

So very sad to hear of your loss. I will keep you all in my Thoughts and Prayers.
