Robert Orien "Bob" Rock

I can't say that my fondest memories of my Dad were when I was young because they aren't. I wish I could remember the times on the farm like my older siblings can but I guess that's one of the drawbacks of be the youngest , you're always on the tail end of everything.

My sympathy to Bob's family. I knew your parents when you lived next to the Highland Farms Restaurant and later when I worked with Bob for a short time at the RTA Company in Albany. Bless all of you.

To All the Rock kids!

I am saddened to read this about your dad. I have many, many fond memories of all of you as small children when I babysat for you all. I remember your mom and dad and fun times we had at your house. Cherish all your memories and they will sustain you at this difficult time. Know he's in a better place, with your mom now and they're both smiling and looking down on all of you.

With Love and Sympathy,
