He will be missed; every time I hear Black Magic Woman from Santana I see Rocco on bass and Adam on drums in their band. When I think of my marriage I can hear Adam giving me his best wisdom as my bestman, when I look at my son I can see how honoured Adam was to be his godfather. To say he will be missed is to say he lives on in our hearts and minds with great love,
