I will miss you buddy. You were my best friend for our entire childhood. My fondest memories were playing kickball in my yard or basketball next door and camping and fishing with you. Even when we had nothing to do we made snow forts and even invented a new frisbee game where we would each open our garages and try to throw the frisbee vertically so it bounced into the garage and the other person would be the goalie trying to block it. You will be forever missed.

Thomas can be described in so so many ways and nick names. Rocky, Buddy, Waldo, Homer, Goofy.  But none of these TRUELY replace the way he ALWAYS stopped/chatted about your life & things that mattered to you.  Thomas was vested in his coworkers and knew about your kids, parents, husband wife, football aka sports, movies shows, food and even Politics.  Making you feel important and cared for. Thomas also shared and taught (by example) kindness and forgiveness and that both were keys to happiness in life.  I can't think of a time that he denied helping.  No matter what was said or did against him, if they were in a disagreement didn't matter.  Thomas just HELPED.  Heading will be forever changed without him.  But there is also not a cell or space that isn't filled with AMAZING memories.  Miss you so friend but know you are still with us.

My baby brother, I have so many beautiful memories of you. I will keep them with me. You will always be with me in my heart Rocky.

Until we meet again...

Heartfelt condolences and sympathy on the loss of your son and brother Rocky to the Shell family.   Although still a baby when we first knew him we remember him well.  Our hearts break for you at this time.  May Rocky now Rest  in Eternal Peace.   We will include you and Rocky in our prayers.  May you find peace knowing he is resting in God's arms. 

I used to live on Hans Brinker Street with Rocky. We played basketball non stop til dark every day until my dad whistled telling me to come home. I remember whacking the baseball on a rope in the Chesney's garage. 

Later in life I had the opportunity to hang with Rocky again. I employed his ex girl friend named Tiffany. We hung all the time. We  frequented Rhinos bar and always had a good time when we were together. What I remember most if he was a good person, a good soul, he made everyone more positive.  He’s just a good person. I am honored to know him the short while I did. 

Respectfully, Chris Freeman 863 Hans Brinker St. 80907
