Sorry to hear about Rocco. The Harms boys will forever remember him for all the great childhood memories he gave us from coaching our baseball teams to playing basketball in the driveway with us. I can remember he drove me to the hospital when I broke my elbow playing basketball due to Bob Riga stepping on my foot. God bless your all.

So, so sad to hear this news! Rocky (and Georgine) were the first of our H Dock friends at the Fox Chapel Yacht Club and we remember with great fondness the many dock get-togethers and celebrating milestone birthdays. Our thoughts and prayers are with Georgine and the family. May God comfort you in your sorrow.
