Rocky was a unique and accomplished man of great faith. The Lord was his guiding light all his life. He served in the Army during the time of the Korean War, at which time he had a patented invention.

He volunteered many years at St. Gregory the Great, most notably coordinator of the boy's retreats. For many years he was active in the Knights of Columbus. He owned an electronics business in Harrison for many years. He will always be remembered for his ability to fix and reconstruct anything, and had a flair for not boasting his accomplishments. He was a humble man who only saw good in those he met and touched many lives in a positive way.
