As i write my thoughts about my buddy Rocky I am saddened that he has passed I have been blessed with knowing Rocky a good part of my life. When I got into trouble 20 years ago he took me under his wing and loved me until I could love myself He taught me so many things about family , life, God and self respect . I cannot begin to think how I could ever repay him for the things he has done for me . I will continue to be the man he helped me to be and take care of my family first. He was an amazing man and I have many great memories of our Friday night dinners which we have been doing for close to 15 years it was there I had the chance to truly get to know this special man. So with a heavy heart I say RIP my friend I truly love you and thanks for everything

Rocky was the man who taught me to talk from the heart, Knowing him for over 40 years, he touched my whole family with his love and support. I never felt judged by Rocky, even when I strayed and came back to program, he welcomed me back. He kept it because he always gave it away unconditionally. I will carry the torch for your funny corny jokes! I will continue to pass on all I learned from you! You will missed but never forgotten!

Knowing Rocky for almost 30 years was unforgettable. His will to make his own life better was remarkably complemented by his passion to share his experience, strength and hope with everyone he crossed paths with. Whether telling a joke for the umpteenth time or just being around him brought smiles to everyone. My sincerest condolences to his and family as well as my heartfelt gratitude to them for sharing him with all of us. Rest In Peace, my friend.

Dear Family, Rocky was my GA sponsor . His guidance, wisdom, and humor was a shining example of what a good recovery looked like . I considered him a friend and a confidant, So sorry for your loss, my loss, and the loss to society. His name will always be synonymous with involvement and next year will be tougher than this year so work hard. With Love and sadness , but the joy of wonderful memories with Rocky I wish you the memories of a life well lived. Bob Zeiff
