Richard (Dick) Brockman of Foristell Missouri was called home on March 6th, 2021. He was the proud son and fifth child born to Harold and Mildred Brockman.
Dick is survived by the love of his life Rhonda (Nelson), his children Amy (Brockman) Thornton and husband Kevin, and their daughter Libby of New Melle Missouri. Richard (Rich) and Rachel (Fowler) Brockman and their children Kaleb and Madeline of Warrenton Missouri. As well as his siblings, Charles (Bud) Brockman of Maryland Heights. Brother Robert Brockman and his wife Helen of Colorado Springs. Brother Gary Brockman and his wife Tammy of Montgomery City. Sister Vikki Brockman and Roger Petty of Wright City. Four generations of nieces and nephews.
Dick was preceded in death by his parents, his brother James (Jack) Brockman, and his sister Janet (Brockman) Wade. Dick was very passionate about his family who brought him his greatest joy. His fatherly love is eternal and without end. He was blessed with a multitude of friends to share his joy of life as well. He spent over 50 years doing what he loved, shoeing horses, which in his eyes was not considered work. Dick enjoyed all things horses, the cowboy life, camping, skiing, and Worship up Saddle up cowboy Ministry. He was a very accomplished farrier who shod hundreds of world champion horses. Dick never had to tell anyone he was a cowboy, a Christian, or a man. His actions spoke for him. He will be dearly missed by all who knew and loved him.
The family is having a private service.
In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to Cystic Fibrosis Foundation, American Heart Association, or Worship up Saddle up Cowboy Ministry in care of Pitman Funeral Home, P.O. Box 248, Wentzville, MO 63385.
