Lorraine, Rocky Jr., George, John, Julie, Jim, Patrick, Darlene and Sonya- I was so shocked to hear of Rocky passing away. I have so many fond memories of time I spent at the farm. Rocky and I shared some great times. My thoughts and prayers are with all of you.

Saddened to hear of Rocky's passing. We competed against each other on the football fields but were friends off of it. Way to early for his departure. He will always be part of the Poultney/Fair Haven rivalry. R.I.P. Steve.
