Jeff's Band
Goodbye my friend
To gentle hands.
Your gift left me.
I join your band.
I've learned the lesson
Taught by you
Of love and innocence
Purity, too.
I'll touch the many
Like you did
The hope you are
My heart will live.
Someday
When we meet again,
I'm in your band
I remain your friend.
Each moment
When your spirit's near,
I'll hear your voice
And have no fear.
The gigs will play.
We're not alone
Your soul has spoken
Through our own song.

The Rockets Manager
This page is a tribute to a Great Musician, Friend and Person taken way before his time. I created this page to share his music, passion and Heart to everyone and so his music can be still heard all over the world.
On January 18th tragedy hit The Rockets family. Jeff, our band mate and friend was in a fatal one-car accident in Washington Township, NJ. We have been grieving and trying to find ways to understand. We are appreciative of all your prayers and thoughts during this unbearable time. Jeff's family is deeply moved by acts and words of kindness. They have been an inspiration to The Rockets and their faith in the Lord is strong. Jeff Purifico was all about what's right in the world. His endless giving of himself and his art on stage touched thousands of people in a very short time. His friendship to all of us, as well as his talent, is now replaced by the spirit he left in all of us. Indeed, Jeff Purifico will always be on stage with The Rockets.

I miss you everyday, but today is always especially hard. Reflecting on the memories we shared and how blessed I am to have had you as such a strong presence in my life. I love you Jeff…always…
You keep drifting in and out. Sometimes its in the air, in my mind or in my dreams. You used to say that I saved your life...but really I can truley say that you've saved mine...
Closer everyday old friend...I love you <3
It's been a long time... I still tell the story about Spiderman and the Ruby Tuesday's Honey mustard all the time. Good times. I still remember the laughs all the time, and those memories still make me smile. Even the slap in the face I delivered in the 6th grade lunch room.
Happy Birthday, Jeff! I miss you so! I posted this on his guestbook, but it's so interesting, i must share again:
Back in high school, this one ex boyfriend was really mean to me upon our breaking up. I told Jeff all about it, and of course he was supportive. Months later, Jeff encountered this ex because they are both so musically inclined, they happened to meet because of their talents. Jeff remembered this ex and realized it was the same guy and said, "Dude, you should really apologize to her, you were really mean." Verbatim? Maybe not, but that guy did apologize, realizing his cruel folly. After that I decided to forgive this guy and we've talked since because we do have a lot in common, including musical tastes:) So, last night, this guy was in an unusually apologetic mood... and then I realized---it's Jeff's birthday! So, I believe that was my hello. Weird/Cool, right??!
