Rocky's obituary

Daniel "Rocky" Soldinie, 39 yrs old of Waveland Mississippi, was called to Heaven on Saturday the 22nd of October 2022. Rocky attended Bay High school and was a strong, evangelical Bible-believing Christian and a devoted family man.  In his younger years, Rocky's profession began as an Ironworker traveling all over the United States with his Dad and brothers going as far as Gillette, Wyoming. Of note is starting one particular job in the dead of winter with his brother Ray on Ray's birthday Dec 14th, as well as working in Corpus Christi, Texas; Mcpherson, Kansas; and Rockhill, North Carolina to name just a few of the many places he worked around the country. Rocky erected every piece of steel on the local Bay St Louis Hollywood Casino after hurricane Katrina. The casino project  superintendent reported to his Dad that he wished he had a whole crew of "Rockys"!  

In his later years until present, Rocky started his own very successful painting company called "Rocko's Professional Painting". Rocky was a true "Man's Man" who enjoyed antique bottle digging, weight-lifting, floundering and fishing, most of all, as his hobbies. Rocky loved to fish with his Dad and brothers and two sons and nephews. Rocky loved to joke around while fishing and would always bet on who would catch the most or biggest fish and he almost never lost that bet. Rocky loved everyone and was always a smiling, really good-looking, big and strong, and kind-hearted man. He was a loyal protector of his family and friends, many of whom can testify to the fact that no one could harm any family or friend of his while he was around, as he would very quickly put an abrupt end to any threat.

Rocky was preceded in death by only one very close family member who had a very special place in his heart- his "Gram" Mrs. Leah Ybos Braquet who lived with Rocky in the Waveland family home for over 20 years and played a special part raising Rocky and his brothers from a very young age. Rocky is survived by his Father, Rick Paul Soldinie; Mother, Jody Braquet Soldinie; brother Richard Paul Soldinie and wife Leah; Brother Raymond Joseph Soldinie and wife Alanna; step-brother, Jacob Wittmann; step-sister Nicole "Nikki" Wittmann; Fiance' and Love of his Life, Tiffany Carver; two sons, Cameron Garcia and Parker Ray Soldinie; and special family members: Nicole Goodrich "sister" and Niyjah Abbott, nephew.

There will be a service at Edmond Fahey Funeral Home on Friday October 28th with a private immediate family members' viewing from 10:00 am to 11:00 am followed by a Public viewing at 11:00 am until 1:00 pm with a service at 1:00 pm. In lieu of flowers, donations can be given for the surviving sons and fiance.
