ROCCO MONTELEONE Obituary
Age 2, of Penn Township, lost his battle with Leukemia on Sunday, March 17, 2019. He was surrounded by his family and friends. Rocco was a happy little boy, funny and so kind. He had a special magic that made everyone he met fall in love with him. He loved Daniel Tiger and Elmo and wrote his own lyrics to an original "Elmo" song. He loved to sing and dance, read books, play dough and bubbles. He had many friends young and old. The world was a better place because of him. Beautiful boy of Brandon and Michelle (Berg) Monteleone; beloved grandson of Stephen and Janice Kovacs of Canfield, OH and Robert Jr. and Janet Berg of Hopewell.

Cousins Shane and Peyton Powell, Sophia Bordonaro, Jess (Ryan) DeLouis and Callen DeLouis. Many Great Aunts, Uncles and Cousins. Best buddies to his four fur brothers Miko, Lindi, Loki and Gunner. Great Grandson of the late Henry and Mary Kay Ihrig, Bartley and Rose Mooney and Robert and Bernice Berg, Sr. He was blessed to have endless support from his Rocco's Warriors family.

My heart hurts so much for all of you on the loss of your beautiful, sweet and precious little boy. It is easy to see how everyone fell in love with him. His sweetness, preciousness and beauty drew one right in. He radiated love. There are no words to adequately convey my sadness to you or my deepest sympathies on your the most unimaginable pain and grief on the loss of Rocco.
Please know there are many thoughts, prayers and much love with you and there will continue to be. God Bless. A Greensburg Mom

I've lived in Charlotte, NC for thirty years but I read the PG every day and read about the loss of your beautiful baby boy, Rocco. I knew his grandpap, Jeep, when I lived in Pgh and was active in political fund raising, etc. I extend my heartfelt condolences to your family. I am too old to give up things for Lent but instead decided to make gifts to those I could help during this Lenten season and it seems fitting that a gift to the Leukemia Society should be made to honor Rocco. I will remember Rocco and your family in my prayers.

Dear family, I did not know Rocco, however , I can see by the wonderful photo that he was indeed a wonderful little boy. As a new grandfather myself,I cannot imagine your pain. My hope is to someday hear of the total defeat of all childhood diseases so that these little people live long and reach their full potential as adults. God bless you all. John from Glenshaw,PA
