Not sure what to say?

With wonderful memories from our days at VIVUS and ALZA, I salute Rock. It is too sad for words.

So sad to hear this - my condolences to the family. Sue - I'm truly sorry. Deanne

I am very sorry for the loss of Rock. I worked with him and Rock had a vibrancy and a larger than life personality. He will definitely be missed.
Sincerely,


Rich Grueter

Mrs. Magnotta and family, I want to convey my deepest sympathy to you. Rock was truly a wonderful person with a great sense of humor. I had the pleasure in working with him at Astellas. He will be missed.

Sue and the Magnotta family, I am sorry for your loss. About a year ago Rock and I connected after losing touch after we both left Glaxo, and it felt like we didn't skip a beat. We caught on many things and what stuck out in my mind was the love for his family. He was particularly proud of marrying his high school sweetheart, and definitely was a proud father. I can think of so many fond memories working with him, and will always remember him as a humble well grounded guy.... a true class...

Sue - I'm at a loss for words. Indeed Rocky was taken far too early. He was truly one of a kind. I will forever remember the fun times we had in DC on 41st Street. Rock lit up a room when he entered, had a contagious laugh, and a heart that was huge and went out to everyone. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your children, Fred, Chris and the entire Magnotta Family. Someone said only the good die young, and it is very true in this case. Rock was one of a kind - as my parents...

Condolences to the Magnotta family.Rest in peace

Sue, Fred, Chris and families,

We are so saddened by Rock's passing.
Rock was such a wonderful person throughout his life. I have so many good, funny memories of the times we had as kids. Elvis Pressley records, Marx Brothers movies, Digging a pool with "Rocky Horror" blasting in the background. He had a smile and a laugh that just lit you up. And he was a person who was willing to help anyone out in any way possible.
Please know that we are saddened at this time. Also know...

To all the Magnotta family,
So sorry for your loss . I can still remember Chris and I walking into the house seeing Rocky cooking with Mom -Mrs. Magnotta like it was yesterday. You all have a great family values and a brotherhood that is tightly bound. Only the good die young . God Bless you Rocky!
