I was very saddened to hear about Rocky’s passing. All my condolences to the family. He was a very good person, many people enjoyed his company in general and his happy go lucky attitude, his humour was always welcome. His work ethic was great so willing to help anyone always. He was a great asset to companies he worked with. He will be missed dearly by everyone he touched I am certain.
Rest In Peace Rocky we will not forget you.
Dear Rocky – you were the highlight of our visits to your home . We never saw this day coming – I guess the good Lord loved your sense of humour too – we will miss you so much . But we are honoured to have known you as long as we have x

We have been deeply saddened by the news of Rocky’s passing, and our sincere condolences to Patsy and family during this difficult time.
Rocky was genuine person who was always sincere, thoughtful and considerate of others, and more often than not putting others ahead of himself. Without being asked, whether it was work related or personal, he was always willing to go out of his way to help a colleague or friend; and of course never afraid to share some humour that was guaranteed to put a smile on one’s face.
We are very grateful for the friendship that we have had with Rocky over the past ten years. He will be dearly missed, but the memories will be with us for years to come!
Rest In Peace our friend!
Patsy & family, our sincere condolences to the family, always enjoyed his visits and he enjoyed visiting here, cherish the memories in the difficult days ahead.

We know not when the Master calls;
It could be Winter, Spring, Summer or Fall.
The call affirms Our journey on Earth completed its time;
We are joyous but saddened for those we’ve left behind.
The energy and the surrounding light is so bright;
Rocky gets to see God, what a beautiful, wondrous sight.
God smiles, exuding such warmth and welcomes Rocky home;
“Come talk to me further, my child,” says God from the throne.
“Come say hello to my son, he’s known as Jesus to thee;
He’s the reason you are here and why you are now free.”
You are an integral part of heaven’s spiritual family;
We are all happy here, especially you and me.
Look around and absorb closely all that you see;
This is where we will all spend eternity.
There is no space, there is no time;
We are now pure energy, thus all one of a kind.
You may ask, “What is my purpose, why am I here;”
“The answer, have no doubt, will become crystal clear.”
Initially you will remember your life on Earth;
Starting with your first breath and the exact moment of your birth.
Here in heaven there is no rush, just happiness and song;
We’re on a spiritual mission where nothing can go wrong.
We welcome you home as you say a brief good-bye;
Rocky Head at rest, you will be missed but no need for us to cry!!!!
Thanks for the memories Rocky, until we meet again.
Terry

From our chance meeting in the dark on highway 17, you and Patsy have held a special place in our hearts. Rest in peace Rocky. We have lost a true friend.
Patsy and Family, Bob and Toot.
We were saddened and shocked to hear about Rocky’s sudden passing. We got to know Rocky through my brother Gary and Karen. They were good friends and had so much love for each other through their jokes and carrying on. We really enjoyed having him stay with us when we laid Gary to rest. It’s a very difficult thing to comprehend that they are both gone from us. Patsy may you fine strength in your precious memories to hold and sustain you in the days ahead. Thinking of you all at this difficult time.
My sincerest condolences to all of Rocky’s family and friends. I worked with Rocky at Suncor on and off over the years; he was a fine man, a very respected and admired supervisor; he will greatly missed!! Thinking of you and your family and wishing you all moments of peace and comfort. Life is eternal and love is immortal, and death is only a horizon.
I was one of the fortunate people to have known Rocky. Along with so many others he helped me when I needed it and for that I will be forever grateful. You will be missed uncle Rocky , may you rest in peace.

Just heard about Rocky’s passing this week after talking to an old friend from work. I worked for rocky from 2008 till 2014. Rocky always had work for me and was always there when I needed something. He helped countless amounts of people over the years and I was lucky to be one of them. Rest easy rocky.
