We all miss you Rocky From the kung fu lessons to the reality check of a midsummers day armpit headlock ........ He was the kind of man that liked to prepare you for the future and to be grateful for the present. And the smell of a man's armpit ........... isn't exactly like that Halloween treat or Christmas present that you look forward to all year. Its one of the perfect ways to deliver that valuable present of tough love ........ because it cant be misunderstood as hurtful words instead of helpful advice. You just suddenly realize something you might take for granted has become a luxury......... When you take that first breath after cleaning your nose he would say " See Les? Smell more ?.... Life is good .......... If you think life is bad you're gonna smell what the rock is cookin again " Then he would lean in and quietly say " You didnt like the smell did ya ? " " Hell No " " Good!! " After the bombardment jokes ended he would help solve the original problem within a more clear positive mindset ...... depending on the IQ of the person listening. He was a very rare person with a rough exterior that helped us overcome the obstacle of fear in general. Once you understood him .......... you would be blessed with good memories that would never fade. Truly a good soul that was worth taking the time to get to know
