Thanks Coach Rock for the time you spent with our son at ECU. You made a strong impression on him as a football coach but you made a lasting impression on him the way you fought the battle you did to the end!

This really touched home with me. For the short time I knew Rock, he was very instrumental in my son's recruitment to ECU. He sat at my table and ate dinner 2 times. Boy did he love to eat!

Dear Roggeman Family,
I’m so saddened to hear of your loss. It is evident by all the entries the Rock’s morals, values and work ethic were Godly, and something to be admired. Rock’s deep faith in God and dedication to hard work seemed to touch and teach all that knew him. What a wonderful legacy to give to ones fellow man. You are all in my prayers.
