    I'm shocked... and don't know what to say. He seemed to be in great health and always working... I suppose we can all take away from this that "Nothing is guaranteed" in this life... not even another day...

    Rocky was always willing to help others with their questions, as he helped me on several occasions.

    My prayers for Rocky and his Family ...

    The following was posted on the other forum by 'Wolfman'...
    "I just received some terrible news. One of my very best friends, Rocky Stephens (aka Rockytopper), that I've known for the last 25 years, just passed away a couple of hours ago. He collapsed at lunch from a blood clot in his lungs, while celebrating Mother's Day weekend with family members down in Waco. His wife Marilyn asked me to share the news and let his friends know. Please pray for Rocky and his family. R.I.P. my friend. I will miss you greatly."

    Wow, I'm shocked beyond belief. This shows it can happen to anyone, anytime and we need to not lose sight of that. He was just here. Rocky and I had some spirited debates and he even recently called me a "moron", but I never felt any animosity toward him and thought he was a good guy. May he rest in peace. Damn!

    Life, it ends without notice. I knew you not but am saddened to know you have left this earthly place. May our Lord take you in His arms and may you rest in His Peace until the final reunion where we will meet.


    Ephesians 4:31-32




    31 Get rid of all bitterness, rage and anger, brawling and slander, along with every form of malice. 32 Be kind and compassionate to one another, forgiving each other, just as in Christ God forgave you.

    He was one of the coolest guys I've known in the car hobby. We met thru the business so I say he's a customer but he was a friend after that. Really easy to talk to , down to earth guy. It was like talking to a best friend. The hobby lost a good one with Rocky. Prayers to the family
