I am really sorry to hear about this. I went to school with Rocky. My prayers are with his family.

Thank you. Words cannot express how much I appreciate your son. Because of him, and other's like him, I can write these words in freedom.
Thank you.

I thank Rocky for protecting our family. He was "Uncle Rocky" to me and he was a great man that believed in what he was doing. He will be greatly missed.

Rocky was a great soldier a good friend and the most tactical joker. I served with him in the 449th and the 786th quartermasters. He will be missed by everybody that know him. I agree that 900 South should be remaned in his honor.

Rocky was a great leader and friend. I am honored to say that I have served with him. He made the ultimate sacrifice for his country and Soldiers and will always be remembered for his actions. My familiesï¿½ thoughts and prayers are with his family.

We will never forget!

Rocky and I joint the Army the same year and served together as Drill Sergeants at Fort Leonard Wood. He was a good soldier and a great man who will be missed by all. My deepest sympathy goes out to the family at this dark time in your lives. Rocky...I will never forget you!!!
