" I want to Thank God for Blessing me with my son Brock.

He blessed me with Brock that had a heart as big and beautiful as the sky.

His heart was as soft and huggable as a cloud.

He was bright as the sun and could ease you like the moon.

He was as strong as thunder he could sooth you like the rain.

He enjoyed life like the snow, he would be with you any directions like the wind.

He loved like God loved him.

Thank you, sweet Jesus, from the bottom of my heart, I thank everyone for loving him.

He loved Lindsey & Parker like God loves & protects all his family.

I will miss my son.

Mom loves you, Brock.

Can't wait to see you soon."
