The Untold Story of Bock Bock

No, Bock Bock in this case wasn’t actually the name of a chicken. The kids gave this name to a good friend by the name of Paris Cloud who passed away in January from brain cancer at the young age of 59. His celebration of life was just last week so I decided I better write what we knew of him down before I forget. But really, I don’t think he can be forgotten. Who was Paris, and was that really his name? From what I understand, he got his name from an ancestor of his. He told us of many stories of having relatives who were of Indian descent (Feather not dot). Paris was the son of the legendary Tampa Police Sergeant Richard Lee Cloud, who was assassinated by the mob at the age of 33 because of his relentless pursuit of the drug dealers and criminals of the Florida mob. There is an entire book written about the events surrounding his death and it will blow your mind. Find it HERE : The Last Lonely Eagle! Paris and his brother Paul were just 10 and 8, respectfully, at the time ...
