Rocky Lane O'Berry

He is survived by his loving wife, Maryann O’Berry; sons and daughters-in-law, Jason & Susan O’Berry, Kyle & Allissa O’Berry and Cameron O’Berry, all of Brooksville, Florida; brother, Bill O’Berry of Dillsburg, Pennsylvania; eight grandchildren, Alyssa, Jason, Miranda, Ashlyn, Elizabeth, and Aryn O'Berry and one great-grandchild, Remi Hughes.
