I am so sorry to just now hear about Rocky's passing. I worked with her at Boeing and she gave me the most beautiful baby shower in 1988. Although people unintentionally lose touch over the years, I thought of her often. So sorry to hear of her suffering. She made a huge impact on my life and I loved her so much. So sorry for your loss and for these belated condolences.

Jim, Jared, Jayme & Janae,
It was sad to read of Rocky's death in the Conway Springs paper. Rocky was always so upbeat, and fun to be around. I can still remember visiting in your home, and the pretty entryway. It was my pleasure to teach you three kids. I pray for God to comfort all of you and meet your special needs at this time. Only He can give you the peace that passes all understanding. I will pray for that gift for you.

Jim, Jared, Jayme and Janae
I was real sorry to hear about Rocky. She was in my morning prayers daily from the time I heard about her cancer a few years ago.
I pray that God will hold her in his arms in Heaven and give you all the graces and strengths you need during this time. Rocky was a great lady and an exceptional mother.

My heart goes out to the Weber family. Although I only knew Rocky for a short time, it only took the first time meeting her to see her vibrant and loving personality. She was loved by so many and has left a footprint in so many lives. My deepest condolences, warm hugs, and continued prayers during this difficult time. I love you guys :)

Jim, Jared, Jayme, and Janae, Death is a relocation of the same person from one place to another. The place changes, but the person remains the same. The same person who becomes absent from his or her body becomes present with the Lord (2 Corinthians 5:8). We won't be angels but we'll be with them. I truly believe Rocky is the same person in heaven as she was here on earth. She was a wonderful person and she taught me to be strong and enjoy life no matter what. I was very excited to see both Jim and Rocky at SEAS when they first moved to Wichita. A brief reunion that happened several times at different Masses. Jayme, I probably know you the best through Brady. I cannot tell you how sorry I am about you losing your Mom at such a young age. I was about your age when my Mom died. I think about her every day and often wish that she was still here with me. I'm sure you will feel the same way. I would never wish her back though because of her illness, you wouldn't either. Just remember she is always close by and she will be waiting for you at the heavenly gates. Love to all of you.

How do you know when you made a difference in someone's life? When seeing the news of your passing brings tears to the person reading the obituary. You made a difference, Rocky!
Several years ago, I had the pleasure of working with Rocky at Royal Caribbean. Her smile and contagious positive outlook, made her someone unforgettable to me, and I am blessed that our paths met in this lifetime.
May God bring comfort and love to each of her family and friends, for it will be hard not seeing her sweet and loving disposition each day. I shall keep you all in my prayers!
Although, I am terribly sad she is gone from here, I shall remember to take comfort in knowing she is home with our Saviour whom she loved ever so much, and blessedly she shared that love while here.
We were blessed to know you, Rocky! Rest in peace, smiles and love my friend. You did good and made a difference here! Thank you for leaving your imprint on my heart!

Dad, Vanessa, Taylor and I are so saddened to hear of Rocky's passing, although we know the past couple of years weren't her best living. She was such a Light to us finding our Faith and converting years ago. She was also so fun when the girls were little. I'm sure mum is giving Rocky a tour around Heaven. Much love to all of you
