I am so sorry for all of you who were his friends and relatives. I just found this notice online. Rory was in 1st thru 6th grade with me. We were little competitors in who was smarter. I still have a pin he gave me for my 7th birthday. So sad to hear this. Joyce Guzior Campbell

I knew Rory during our grammar school and high school years. My condolences and sincere sympathies to his family.

Uncle Rory, I miss you so much. Not only were you my uncle, but my godfather and someone I would look up to for advice. I have countless memories of my dad bringing me to the office as a kid and I will never forget those great memories. Next time I see you we will split one more pack of baseball cards and split anything we get that is good just like when I was a kid! I love you Uncle Rory. You will be missed, but will always be in my heart. - Mark

Paula and I are so sorry for your loss. Our families shared a unique bond, each with five children, growing up in very modest surroundings. We shared so many things together which left lasting memories. Rory will truly be missed, but i will never forget the many discussions he and I had about girls, cars and music (I think in that order). We sat on the front porch on Mason concerned about the first lottery for the draft, even though we were both born in July, he lucked out with a high draft number and I a low one. During high school, we were together during some very turbulent times in late 60's and double dated to our junior prom. Rory was a very good friend and will be missed by many. Love ya man.

Cheryl, Tricia and Jack, we are so sorry for your loss. May your memories sustain you during this difficult time. We hope you find comfort in knowing he is no longer in pain. Janet and Russell Morelli
