Born to Thomas Ronnie Mock, Sr. and Edna Hinkle Mock, Tommy grew up on the family farm, embracing a life of simplicity and dedication. A true embodiment of the values instilled in a farmer’s child, he carried forward his family's legacy as the owner and operator of Mock Sand Company while continuing to live and work on the family farm. Tommy was the definition of a simple man who found joy in the everyday blessings of life. Known for his kindness and helpful nature, he touched the lives of all who knew him. A loving brother, uncle, and loyal friend, his life was filled with a quiet happiness that reflected his generous spirit.

He was preceded in death by his parents; the love of his life, Legena Perrell Forrest; her son, Stevie Daniels; his sisters, Evelyn Mock Cooper and Barbara Mock Carter (Chris); his niece, Linda Hendrix Sager; his nephew, the Rev. John Edward Perrell; and Chris Carter.

Left to cherish his memory are his sister, Reba Mock Perrell (Gene); nieces, Faye Graham (Mike), Rita Huffman (Allen), Jane Carter, Wendy Hughes (Greg), and Lia Carter; nephews, Corbin Carter (Heather), Christopher Carter (Michelle), Todd Hendrix (Gail), and Garth Perrell (Lynda); and Legena’s children, Wendy Moon (Robert), and Donald Daniels (Missy); and a daughter-in-law, Patricia Daniels. He also leaves behind a host of cherished friends and neighbors.

The family extends heartfelt gratitude to his special caregivers, Faye and Janie, for their loving care and support.
