Rocco had a silly personality and was the life of a party, always the first one to take on a dare. He made friends everywhere he went. Rocco was loving, loyal and protective to everyone he cared for. He loved animals and would always take food to all the feral cats he came across.  He especially cared deeply for those with special needs always making a point to be their friend. Rocco was passionate about music and fashion. He dreamed of one day having his own business and using the profits to save children and help the poor. His heart was pure love.

Rocco touched the lives of everyone he came across. He leaves us with countless memories that we will forever cherish until we meet again.
