Roland L. Woodcock

I cannot believe it has been this long that he is gone. I think about Rollie and brother Ed all the time. They were both a big part of my life. I hope the good Lord built a rink for this duo before they checked in.

dearest marylin and eddie; may you be consoled by the memories of the many years and happy times you shared with each other; we have just heard of rollies passing or we would have been there for you and to share the thoughts of our youthful times;; love and affection debby johnson and bill bradshaw

Stan and I are so sorry for your loss. This message is for the whole family especially Muriel, Marilyn and Carolyn as we would have been at the calling hours to speak to you personally had we not been in Florida. Stan and Rob were regulars at the shop and always came home with a story or two because it was such a gathering place. We will also miss seeing Rollie at Molly's fabulous birthday parties.
Our prayers and thoughts are with you.
Barbara and Stan Traverse

Our family sends our sincerest condolences to your family. My son and I are heartbroken that we missed the wake. We only found out this past weekend that Rollie had passed on. He was a daily part of our conversations whenever talking about hockey and my son's years with Pawtucket Youth Hockey. My son would not let any one else sharpen his skates. I remember when my son John had Rollie sharpen his skates right before a speed skating clinic. The skates had such an edge that when he went to...

Dear Tommy, so sorry for your loss.

Mrs. Woodcock, Mori and Rollie, It is always too soon. Because he was so loved, there will be tears. But there will also be the happy memories of your time together. Hoping those happy memories will be your first thoughts in the days to come. Thinking of you.

Mori, and Rollie... I will never forget the night of a game for EP, when I realized a rivet on my skate was missing. Your Dad fixed it for me as always, but when I asked him what I owed, all he said was "a goal". Thankfully that happened. Your Dad was a great man, and I was proud to know him. Hockey and Rollie are synonymous, and always will be. My thoughts and prayers are with you at this time and always. Gregg Medeiros #12

My sincere condolences go out to the entire family. I met Rollie through his business as he sharpened not only my skates, but my friends skates to perfection. I live in Fall River which is a little distance from Rumford, but it was well worth the trip. He was a simple man who worked very hard and it was an honor to know him. Rollie will be sorely missed by all and his legacy in the area as the premier skate sharpener, will live on forever.

My condolences go out to the whole Woodcock family. Rollie, Eddie, and Tom were special to the Mullen family. Each one played for my Dad at Hope High School, and I was luckey enough to play with Rollie on the same line the year we won the State Championship. A special guy, who I went to visit just about a year ago. Enjoyed meeting Rollie Jr. for the first time. Please Rollie call me when you have a moment. Jim Mullen-508-864-1441.
