    My condolences to the family and friends of Rocky. My years and memories with him are ones as children growing up to teenagers. We survived a lot without helmets and elbow pads. Cherish your memories and remember them all with smiles, a fishing pole and a beer.

    Praying for your family ❤️ I went to school with Rocky for 12 years. I saw him last at our high school reunion. We caught up on life after high school and he looked very happy. So sad to hear of his passing. He was talented, successful, and will be missed.
