Father Rock was a wonderful man, a terrific friend and an exceptional priest in every aspect. We loved him and will miss his guidance and sharp approach to life. We thank God for him.
We just learned of his passing and we are heartbroken. Our sincere condolences to each of you.

God Bless you Father Rocco! You came into my life when you arrived at St. Andrews. My Mom was homebound and her name was in your book to visit her monthly. Even hearing the same stories over and over again you were very patient and stayed to keep her company. Your kindness cheered her greatly and touched my heart forever.

So very sorry to hear of Fr. Rocco's passing. He married my husband & I & also baptized my son & daughter. He would come to my house for dinner & we had many laughs. After my husband got sick, he was very helpful to me & my family. A very good friend, Priest & wonderful person. We will miss him. May he R.I.P. We thank you Fr. Rocco for all that you did to keep our family strong. ?

Fr. Rocco was a longtime friend of our family . He and my brother were best friends and participated in many of the CYO activities before Fr. Rocco became a priest. He married my husband and I and later officiated as we renewed our vows after 25 years. He was a wonderful man and will be greatly missed. My dear brother passed away the day after Fr. Rocco and I'd like to think that heaven's two newest angels are once again enjoying each other's company. God bless them both.

My sincere condolences to Georgiana and Family on Fr. Rocky's passing. He is at peace. My thoughts are with you all.
I have many fond memories of Rocky's antics when I joined the St. Michael's C.Y.O young adult group in Union City during the latter part of the 1950's. He sure was a great guy. His call to the priesthood did not surprise me as he had a great deal of compassion for others.
God Bless
