We all miss him for he was dearly loved by all. He leaves a wife, five children, three brothers, two sisters, step-mother and five half-brothers and a host of friends and relatives to mourn his loss, but their loss is his eternal gain. Sleep on Brother Shockley, until we meet where we will never part. Written by Rev. James Ogan, Rev. Jesse Greene and Rev. McKinley Reed.
