Hi Edna, Georgia and James, Truly sorry that I was unable to make it to the funeral. The last time I saw him, at the family reunion, he was still teasing me and being just as mischevious as ever. You are in my prayers. Just remember he was blessed to live a long life and much of it spent with Cousin Sis.

It was a pleasure to be a grandson to a great God fearing man who loved the Lord and his family. He always had a kind word too say to everyone he met.

Hello Family,
God bless you all. I will certainly miss Uncle Tom. We all know he is in peace now, no more ackes and pain. We have enjoyed his 3 score and 10+.
I can always remember when I was a child, Uncle Tom would always give us a quarter to stay overnight with Aunt Sis when he used to work the night shift at the Ordinance. Of course, we were happy to stay, because Aunt Sis would always give us good things to eat.
I will truly miss him, I know God is smiling when one of his saints have gone home to glory.
I will keep all of you (the living) in my prayers.
Stay Blessed.....Marjorie

Hello All,
I prayed for Uncle Tom that he would enjoy his journey in heaven. I prayed also that the family will be patient in the healing process. I know that this will take a long time. I thank God for the love for all the caregivers He place to tend to Uncle Tom's needs.
Every time I came home to visit, I would always remember the times when I was very young, I would spend the nights with Aunt Sis while Uncle Tom was at work. He always gave us a quarter for staying over. Aunt Sis always gave us goodies to eat.
Now, Uncle Tom has lived longer than is 3 score and 10; the other years have been a blessing to all around him.
I now pray for the healing of the entire family.
I love you all......Marjorie

To the Family,
GOD has smiled down on Mr Hocker, now he can re-join MaMa and get his reward. Precious memories how they linger, I know he's left the family with some good ones, some that will make you sad, and some that will lift your spirit and make you laugh. Mz Georgia I will keep you and your family in prayer.
