Ezio (Rocky) Ognissanti, age 59, of Omaha, passed away Thursday, October 8, 2020.
Rocky grew up in Siracusa, Sicily and came over to the United States at the age of 16. When his parents moved back to Sicily, he decided to stay in Boston for a few years and then joined the military at the age of 20. While in the military he went overseas to Germany. This is where he met his wife, Kimberly. He is a Gulf War veteran, and retired after 16 years. This brought him and his family back to Omaha.
Rocky worked for the United States Postal Service, where he worked for 22 years. He loved to joke around with everyone and would do whatever he could to make people feel at home.
Survived by his wife Kimberly, children Anthony (Lisa) Ognissanti, Monica Wilcox, grandchildren Summer Ognissanti and Malia Wilcox, mother Guiseppina Conigliano, sister Cinzia Ognissanti, as well many other family and friends.
