Lillian T. Brock

Lillian Thomas Brock, 88, of Arlington, Texas passed away peacefully Saturday, October 8, 2022, surrounded by family and caretakers at Aviva Granbury. Lillian was born January 20, 1934, to Archie and Virginia Tackett in Kaufman, Texas. Lillian grew up in Kaufman, graduated from Kaufman High School and then married Stanley K. Brock on May 3, 1952. After Stan’s deployment to Korea in the Air Force, the couple then moved to Arlington where they were both longtime residents. Lillian was an active member of both Northside Baptist Church and Lamar Baptist Church in Arlington, volunteering her time to meet the churches’ needs. Lillian also volunteered many hours to the Arlington School District as room mother and PTA member and President at Kooken Elementary. She also worked as a paraprofessional for the Arlington School District for over 15 years, where she made many lifelong friends. The difficult decision to move Lillian to Granbury, TX was made in 2019 in order to provide the care she then needed.

Lillian is preceded in death by her parents, her brothers Bill and Pete Tackett, and her son-in-law, Joseph Garza. She is survived by her three girls who were her pride and joy, Virginia Gail Morgan of San Marcos, TX, Lu Nell Garza of Spring Branch, TX, and Carol Ann Cox of Granbury, TX, along with two sons-in law, Tommy Morgan, and Bart Cox whom Lillian also loved very much. She is also survived by her first cousin, Nan Ray of Kaufman who was always a sister to Lillian. Lillian loved and found great joy in her 9 grandchildren and 15 great-grandchildren who will all miss her greatly.

Services will be held Tuesday, October 18, 2022 at Lamar Baptist Church, 1000 W. Lamar Blvd., Arlington, TX at 11:00 AM with visitation one hour preceding. Internment to follow at Arlington Memorial Cemetery. In lieu of flowers, the family requests donations to be made to Lamar Baptist Church.

The family would like to thank all the caregivers at Aviva of Granbury for the kind and loving care Lillian received while residing there. No one could have done a better job and it is greatly appreciated.
