Rocco Mastrangelo Obituary

Published by Legacy Remembers on Jul. 8, 2013.

Safely Home
I am home in heaven, dear ones;
oh, so happy and so bright!
There is a perfect joy and
beauty in the everlasting light.
All the pain and grief is over,
every restless tossing passed;
I am now at peace forever,
safely home in heaven at last.
There is work still waiting for you,
so you must not idly stand,
do it now, while life remaineth–
you shall rest in God's own land.
When that work is all completed,
He will gently call you home;
oh, the rapture of that meeting
oh, the joy to see you come!

Grandpa was an amazing man with a wonderful sense of humor! I loved his accent and his great stories of things that had happened to him. He accomplished so much in his life and will live on through his children/grandchildren/great grandchildren!! We all love you, Grandpa!! Love--Michele, Anthony, Amanda, Sydney & Victoria!

Mike, I thought a great deal of Rocco and sorry that circumstances didn't keep me in closer touch, but he certainly knew where he'd last forever--into the hearts of those who loved him. And he left at the end of a six-game Yankee winning streak--going out fittingly as a winner.
