My thoughts and prayers go out to the Cambria family. I enjoyed talking with Mr. Cambria at his shop for many years and even though I have lived in Michigan for a few years I looked forward to coming back and chatting with him whenever I was back in town. He was a great man and will be deeply missed.

Rocco was a very special man. He cut my fathers hair for several years and when he became ill Rocco even came to the nursing home. Our family will never forget his kindness. Our thoughts and prayers are with your family.

Our thoughts and prayers are with you in your time of grief. May your memories bring you comfort.
Rocco cut my hair in the late 70's and early 80's. He always had a kind word for me and others. May he rest in peace.
