    Joann: In doing family research, I came across the obituary of your husband, Rocky. I'm sure that, even after 2 1/2 years, you still miss him. I'm sorry that we haven't had the opportunity to meet since our teen years. Please accept my very tardy condolences. If you'd like to be in touch with a cousin, please e-mail me at the address listed. Linda

    Our entire family sends its sincere condolences to all of Rocky's family. He was a terrific guy who always was there for anyone that needed help, and was a real handyman! Our Mother loved him like a son, and I'm sure she sends her love for everyone from above. Again, we're very sorry for your loss. Love, the Polimene family.
