Aunt Lorraine, Frannie and Anthony,
I am so sorry and saddened by the loss of Uncle Rocky. We know he is now at peace and no longer sick or in pain. As the youngest, I don't have the old family memories my sisters do, but I am so glad I was able to get together with you all up in NY and down here a few times these past years to get to know you all better. Uncle Rocky, as an older man, really reminded me of my Grandpa; who I also miss.
These days and weeks ahead of going through the funeral and other necessary things to do, will be the hardest and most surreal part. Please know that we grieve with you and love you all.

Dear Aunt Lorraine, Franny and Anthony. I was so very saddened by the loss of Uncle Rocky. Although we haven't seen each other in such a long time I have such fond memories of growing up with all of you and remember how much I loved him. As I got older I remember thinking how handsome he was and secretly believing that I could marry him some day. I understand the pain of your loss as we are still dealing with it ourselves. Hold on to all of those tender, loving memories you all have and know he will live in your hearts forever. Think of all the family he is with now, it must be some party! Please know that you are in my thoughts and prayers and I am sending love your way. Ruth

I miss Uncle Rocky so much already. Everyone needs to stay strong and remember he is in a better place. I just hope I am strong enough to get through this very hard time. Please let me know if anyone needs anything at any time.

Aunt Lorraine, Fran & Anthony,
My heart goes out to all of you at this very difficult time. Having just gone thru it myself by losing my Mother only a few weeks ago, I know the pain you are feeling. As you go thru each day, remind yourself that "Uncle Rocky" is in a much better place now, A place where he is no longer sick and feels no pain. A place where there is no stress, or discontent. Only peace and happiness, where he can now do what he has wanted to do for you all for so long...... watch over you and protect you. For now he is your Guardian Angel. Hold that thought close to your heart and find some peace in that and with each passing day, your pain will ease.
Please know that I am here if you need to talk or if you need help with anything. Dont try to be heros and do everything yourselves......let people help you.
I love you all and will miss my Uncle Rocky very much.
Love, Toni
