"I'm lucky to have had the privilege to know Rocco. We worked together at MARTHA & Dr. Oz, he was a father figure and looked out for our Department at the show. He was a wonderful, charismatic and kind man that adored his family, I could only imagine how much he adored his grandchildren. I am deeply sorry for your loss, may you live in all of memories you shared. May his memory be eternal."

"Rocco, I regret that I was not able to pay my respects to you in person. I am moved by all you've accomplished. I knew you through High School. There has been decades that we've never spoken to each other again. I was contacted because we are all connected. We started life back then which bonds us all. I hope you are now at peace. Take care."
