RIP Paul Rochelle
Local Hackettstown dirt track racer Paul Rochelle passed away this past weekend. Sandy, as he was known was a champion modified, sprint car and midget driver. His exploits at Flemington, Nazareth, Orange County and countless other northeast dirt tracks are well known. My condolences to his family.
Thanx for letting Us know. Wil say a prayer for him. His memorable moves will help others at this time.
Short- I new him and his wife years ago. Where can I look up his ob. I would like to contact his family. Thanks.
He used to live on Carol Drive thats where he worked on his race cars in the 60's and 70's!
I know Sandy's youngest son owns a construction company here in Hackettstown. I believe they moved to Florida
Sandy moved to Florida years ago but still came back in the summers to work for his brother Pete. He will be cremated in Florida.
I believe they may be planning a memorial service here as well. If I find out any other information I will post it here.
There is blurb and picture of him on the "Flemington Speedway Historical Society" Facebook page.
RIP
