Alan Rockwood – RIP
The town of Walpole is in mourning upon the news of the death of Alan
Rockwood.
Alan succumbed to an aggressive form of cancer that took his life on
Monday morning, September 15th.
For more than a year, Rockwood battled the cancer with treatments. His
courage and hope and spirits were unflagging.
Rockwood was a dedicated family man with a sincere commitment to those
whom he loved. He was also dedicated to the town, managing a local
business and volunteering his energy and time and good will to various
committees and to elected office.
Rockwood served on the Board of Selectmen with quiet distinction, and
chaired the board on several occasions.
His death is a loss to us all.
We offer our prayers and our condolences to Alan’s family and to his
friends.
He served the town well and Walpole is better for his service. |
