Sudden Loss of Father & Husband
Donation protected
On July 16, 2015, the Bock family experienced a tragedy when father, Paul Bock (51), unexpectedly passed at home alone while taking care of the household. He leaves behind his wife, Janet Bock (50); sons Peter (25) and Shaun (23) ; and their dog, Mitzie. Two months prior, the family moved into a new home with Paul's intention of having the family be together and to ensure that everyone was happy. Now that he is gone, the family is experiencing difficulty managing funds in the wake of this sudden passing. Please help the family find some solace in this difficult time through any contributions that can be made. The family has created this video to demonstrate just how close the family is and how much he meant to the people around him: https://www.dropbox.com/s/ur80zz75ixq2p12/Dad.mp4?dl=0.
This is a very special family that always made time to spend with one another and this loss will forever change their family dynamic. As they mourn the loss of a truly great man who is loved by so many, please help alleviate the burden of moving on with bills, a mortgage, and expenses.
Below, please also find some words from the family regarding the passing of Paul, and how much he meant to those closest to him:
"All I can say is that my dad was loved by many and he was a truly great man. There were not many, if any, people who didn't love his spirit. He was always a shining light and full of life and he will be sorely missed. Shaun and I knew that we could always count on dad to be there for us when we needed him most. He didn't grow up with a strong father figure and he made sure that he did his absolute best to be there for us. I told him many times that he is an amazing father and that his goal of being there for Shaun and I all the time was fulfilled every day. My dad was also amazing to my mom and has been with her since they were both 16. My dad's first and only love was my mom and he talked about how much he loved her all the time. He would tell us stories all the time about how he met mom and how things went when they first started dating. He even told me a funny story last week about how nervous he was to ask my mom out for the first time and it just saddens me to think that my mom lost her soul mate and best friend. My parents had a great marriage and I feel so much hurt for my mom. She is going to need as much strength, love, and support as we can all give her. As we go through this pain and healing process together, I will always try to remember that my father wants all of us to be happy and that he will make sure to watch over us every single day. I have to believe that and I do believe it. I love my dad forever and always."

"It hurts me to say this but it is with extreme sorrow, tears, and heartbreak to announce the passing of my dad, Paul this afternoon [07/16/2015]. My dad was my ABSOLUTE best friend and was the sole reason I wanted to become a head coach because growing up he head coached my sports and was so great at it. He is the reason I am the man I am today and I still cannot rock the fact that he is gone. He was the guy who would give you the world, the shirt off his back, and worried more about others then he did himself. His heart was always in the right place and always knew how to make people smile, even random strangers! I'm not ready to say goodbye to my Dad just yet...still dreaming that this is happening and waiting for him to walk through the front door...I love you dad, then, now, and always! 07/16/15."
