Roc was a Philadelphia sports fan, but most of all he was a life-long super fan of the Philadelphia Flyers. He loved bowling. He was an avid walker, once making a trek from Philly all the way to Springfield to show up on a whim at his sister's house. Services will be private. Final Place of Rest, Holy Cross Cemetery, Yeadon, PA. In lieu of flowers, Roc's family suggests a donation be made in his name to the charitable projects by the Philadelphia Flyers at https://www.nhl.com/flyers/community/flyers-charities/.
