Rocky German
November 10, 2018
Rocky German, age 56, of Des Moines died unexpectedly at home on Saturday, November 10, 2018.
He was born September 4, 1962 in Harlan, Iowa, the son of Marilyn and Robert German. Rocky worked with directional drilling. Family was everything to him and his love for his grandson was immeasurable. He had a passion for fishing, ice fishing, camping, gardening, and canning – anything that involved the outdoors. He had a love/hate relationship with his pain in the butt dogs, Sophie and Sage German. Everywhere Rocky went, the dogs followed. Everywhere Rocky went, we all followed.
Those left to honor his memory include his sons, Justin and Levi German; grandson, Eli German; brothers, Rodney, Randy and Rusty German; and sister, Carla Beiltof.
He was preceded in death by his parents, Marilyn and Robert German; and twin sisters at birth, Marla and Darla.

Where does one begin? Let's start with his smile ! One of the first things that drew me in. His ornery sneaky Rocky tricks. Walking on his hands. Love of his family. But the those eyes when he was looking at his grandson pure innocent love! Rocky was a big part of my life met him when I was 15. He and my dad bonded right away and now they are together again and this makes me smile. The man blessed me with two of the greatest boys in the world. They both carry his smile and yes sense of humor. I love you Rocky thanks for the blessings.
