Terry,
I am so sorry to hear about Rocky. We spent so many days in the press room, working hard but having fun at the same time. Rocky made us smile! The world has lost a good man and he will be missed.

To Rocky' s family, I am sorry to hear of Rocky's passing. I was lucky enough to know him and his family since we met as apprentices. My stories and good times and memories with Rocky would go on for days. I was lucky enough to talk with him recently and reminisce about the good times. He was a good man and friend. Always ready to help. He will be missed. Our thoughts are with you.
