To the Brock family,
I am truly at a loss I want to send my condolences to you during this difficult time. I had the honor of serving with Brock at Ft. Bragg in 99-01 he was a true friend that always was their to lend a helping hand or words of wisdom. Mrs. Brock know that even though he is not here physically all the wonderful memories can never be replaced. The impact Brock made during his time with us made a difference in so many ways we truly lost a great man, but take comfort in knowing that his legacy is one that his family should be proud of.

The Marlowe's are deeply sad to hear about the passing of Tony. He was a friend and a peer. I always had a tremendous amount of respect for dedication to his country and his Family. I have a Permanente mental picture of him just smiling, as he often did.

To The Brock Family,
Becki, myself and the boy's are deeply sorry for Anthony's passing. What a great man; Anthony stood for everything that was right, as a husband, a father, a friend and a professional Soldier. Anthony was a true role model for hundreds of young Soldiers, he provided them purpose and direction and made sure his Soldiers understood that caring for their well being was the most important thing he could do. Anthony's devotion as a father and husband is a mold for everyone to follow. His Family was always first and he often talked about all of them. Anthony was a master at balancing his military duties and his Family. I often observed Tony dropping or picking his kids up from school, watching them all the way to the door, a true parent, that was always concerned for his little ones. Anthony was a true quiet professional, always caring out his duties to exacting standards, a hard but fair senior NCO. Beverly, please know, if you or your Family ever need anything we will be there for you. Anthony's memories will always be with us.

Brock family,
I want to share my heartfelt condolences at the sudden death of your husband and father, Anthony. I remember meeting him at Fort Campbell in 88; we also served together at Bragg 94-99, what a great friend, Soldier and basketball player. He was such a fun person to be around. He was always upbeat and engaging, always ready to listen. He was a good friend and I will truly miss him. I am truly sorry for your loss. God has a plan for him, no matter how hard it is for us to see. My thoughts and prayers are with him and with you at this sad time. May his soul rest in peace.
In deepest sympathy,

Brock Family,
My thoughts and prayers are with you during this difficult time. For the short time that I knew 1SG Brock he was such an outgoing person who cared about his Soldiers and their well being. He would always place their needs above his own and would always go the extra mile to show he cared. He would treat everyone equal and with respect no matter what rank was on your chest. I too at one time was a military wife and still a Soldier, so I know how difficult it is to be the wife of a Soldier and feel as though nobody recognizes you during the Soldiers career. But I'm hear to let you know that we do recognize all that you did and and all the sacrafies you made. If it were not for you being there and being his backbone through it all he would have not been the Soldier and the outstanding Leader that he was. So I would personally like to say thank you for the sacrafices you and your family made for all of us. I am honored to say that he was apart of the GSB, 7th SFG (A) and to say that I was lucky to have met a great 1SG like him. His memory will always be with us and he will never be forgotten.
