David Dale Della Rocco (born May 4, 1952) is an American comedian and actor best known for his supporting role in the 1999 film The Boondock Saints.

He played the part of a low-level mobster who helps his two friends, the MacManus brothers, in ridding Boston of criminals and evil. David Della Rocco returns as "Rocco" in the sequel The Boondock Saints II: All Saints Day in a dream sequence guiding the MacManus brothers on their mission.
