Bruce Morock

Bruce Morock was born to Joseph Louis and Herminia Barbara (Viegas) Morock on Oct. 24, 1954, at Otis Air Force Base in Bourne, Mass. After Joseph’s retirement, the family settled in Wakefield, Mass. Bruce attended Wakefield High School and graduated in 1972.

Bruce married Lynda Gauron on Oct. 3, 1974, and they would have celebrated 48 years of marriage this year.

Throughout his entire life, Bruce held an unwavering faith in God and loved to share the truths of Scripture with youth and adults in Spanish and English. He enjoyed playing chess, traveling, hiking, camping and spending time with family. He loved music and always had a song in his heart. Many remember his enjoyment of coffee, Dr. Pepper, popcorn and spaghetti. The last three months with his family brought him great joy and comfort. Bruce had the God-given gift of humor that could cross language barriers and light up a room with laughter, but his greatest joy was to light up a room with the light of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Bruce and Lynda were faithful members of Southside Community Church in Cocolalla, Idaho.

Bruce is survived by his wife, Lynda; son Daulton (Maggie) Morock; daughter Micaiah (Anthony) Hughes; sisters Roberta and Kimberly; 13 grandchildren and one great-granddaughter.

Bruce is preceded in death by his parents and a grandson.

A celebration of life will be held at 2 p.m., Saturday, Oct. 29, 2022, at Southside Community Church, 251 Cocolalla Loop Road, Cocolalla, Idaho.
