Anthony Daniel Rocco

Anne, Madison, and Griffin,
Through this heartbreaking time, we will try to be with you and look forward to listening to all your loving stories about Tony.

I´m so sadden to hear about Tony passing. He was an amazing person and friend. My condolences to your family. May you rest in peace my friend.

You and I coached our sons at Green Brook Roller Hockey. Our daughters went to school together. I always enjoyed your company & your positive attitude. So sorry to hear of your passing.

I was lucky enough to work for Tony (TBone) for several years in NJ. He was a boss who lead with humor and compassion. I will never forget the day I was working late (on reports FOR him) and he called me to say he had last minute tickets to go see the Allman Bros that night. "Whatever you´re doing - drop it let´s go" and he was truly miffed when I told him I was still working on the information he´d requested He said to me, I´ll never forget it, he said "Cheryl you´ve got to learn what´s important in life and creating reports is NOT it"!

RIP old friend. I just know you found what ever grassy knoll Jerry is hanging out on and you´re spending your time relaxing in the sun listening to the ultimate angel band. Be at rest, but maybe, keep a place for me to set my chair nearby would you?

Dear Rocco family,
Tony was one of my patients and he was always such a kind soul. When i would see him on our schedule i would look forward to having one of our many conversations. I'm so sorry for your lose,
may he rest in peace.

Dear Anne,

We are so, so sorry to hear about Tony.

We have many wonderful memories of Tony starting from our trip Egypt in 2011 when we first met your wonderful family... the only two families to brave the trip during a revolution! You kept in touch and over the years the memories of time spent together in your beautiful home in NJ, in Florida and the couple of times we met up in the UK fill us with so much joy.

In the relatively short time that we spent with him, Tony made a huge impression on us. We remember him as a warm, generous and kind man. A truly lovely man whose company we really enjoyed.

We send our love to you, Madison and Griffin. You are all in our thoughts.

With our love,

Georgina, Steve and Joel

My deepest sympathy to you and your family, Anne and Madison, and my thoughts and prayers are with you. Life is precious. Life is fragile. May you find comfort and strength in the memories of Tony. All the best, Ning

Anne, I´m sorry to hear about the loss of your dear Tony. While I didn´t have the chance to know him, through you I know how great a husband and father he was. My heart goes out to you and your family during this difficult time. Wishing you strength and peace.

Anne - very sorry to hear of your loss. You´re in our thoughts and prayers. God bless you and your family through this difficult time.

I was deeply saddened to hear about the loss of Tony. Over the past few days though, I have reminisced on the good times that we have had. While I was Griffin's friend, Tony always treated me as an equal. He was one of the few dads that truly showed in interest my my life and all of the successes and struggles that go along with it. His love for all those around him will be remembered by all those around him whose lives they touched for the rest of time.

My favorite memory of Tony was dancing with him at Grateful Dead cover band shows. He would hear (and I'm not being facetious) one note of the song and be able to call out which song it was.

While we are all struggling with this loss, I will never forget how he made me feel and I will carry that with me forever. He was a beautiful person and I will try to exemplify the values that he showed me and pass them on throughout my relationships.

Our heart felt condolences. Tony was a beautiful person, always with a great smile and a wonderfully kind heart. It was an honor to know him. " Nothing left to do but smile, smile smile"

Dear Anne, Dear Madison,

Very saddened to learn that you have lost someone so important to you.

Very difficult for me to find the right words, so I will just say that I hope that together you will find the strength to deal with this difficult time together.

My thoughts are with you.

I will be sending out flowers in my family´s behalf and we will also make a donation in Tony´s name to the charity he supported.

Kind regards,
Nuno
