Linda and Family, I was one of the lucky to see my friend Rocky in the bank in LS last week. We had planned lunch after my visit with my children in Florida. Though I won't be able to attend his viewing you all know how I felt about your Dad, we shared a common bond, love of family and people in general. I will miss him too. I will keep you all in my prayers. John
