It was a pleasure to have met and spent time with Caroline's Daddy.
He always lifted me with his smile. Always had a pleasant demeanor. He is a true Christian. There's no doubt in my heart, that he will be one of the ones to put on TLJC's robe of eternal Life.
My deepest condolences to Mr. Brock's entire Family and friends.
