REVIEWS OF REV. RICHARD LaROCCO

• "I have peace like a river in my soul." These are the words that come to mind when I think about my time spent with Richard.  I have been struggling with a loss and through Richard's gift I have found a stillness in my heart.  I felt a heaviness lifted from me and know that my loved one and I still have a life together, it's just different."  -  Suzanna Waldendziak Switzer
• "I recently had a session with Richard. He truly is amazing to work with and I was so grateful for him to share his gift with me. He is easy to talk to and everything he does comes from his heart. I look forward to my next reading!"  -  Alison S
• "​I had an appointment with Rev. LaRocca last evening in hopes of getting closure on my sisters passing. I brought my husband with me to my appointment and he is a total skeptic of mediums. Immediately Rev. LaRocca started off with talking about my husband's grandparents telling him things that there is no way he would know. Then my sister came through and Rev. LaRocca gave me information from my sister. He told me things about her life that no one knew, but he is the real deal.  Our session started off with prayer which made it much more spiritual for me. He has been given a gift that he shares with others so he could give peace to family members left behind.  Rev. LaRocca , I cant thank you enough. I will definitely be back to see you again. God bless you!!!"  -  Audrey A.
• "Richard’s gentleness in communicating his connections and Spirits is truly a gift. I will always be grateful for your gentleness in communicating much needed messages that only the person who passed and I would have known. I look forward to booking another session!"  -  K. Liddic
• ​​"As I was not sure what to expect, I was put at ease as Rev. Richard LaRocco explained how he would go about the reading for the gallery seating event I attended. It was informal, warm, engaging, and deeply moving as he went from person to person and connected with Spirit. I can tell you my personal experience was so spot on.... a question I had posed a month prior in the privacy of my own home was answered that night. No one knew I asked this question... but the specific answer came to me directly that evening This is the real deal folks!!"  -  Kimberly Madej
• "I've had the opportunity to communicate with my loved ones with the help of Richard on more than one occasion.  Each time, the experience was beautiful!  My readings brought such peace and comfort, and because of Richard's connect to Spirit, I was able to once again be in the presence of those who have gone before me.  I have both laughed and cried with Richard...every emotion being palpable!  Richard handles readings with such a gentleness, and confidence, and there is never a doubt that my people are sitting right there with me!!  He has been able to help me calm my heart, my grief and for that I will be forever grateful!"   -  Joanne Ferrelli

 Hello!  My name is Jofa M. Kauffman and I am the owner of Spirited Events by Jofa. Are you wondering how to properly pronounce my first name? It looks like it should be pronounced like sofa, but it's actually pronounced like Hoffa from Jimmy Hoffa. My name may look like I'm from another country, but let me assure you, I'm Pennsylvania Dutch through and through, born and raised in south Central Pennsylvania. Gotta love those apple dumplings!

I started Spirited Events by Jofa in 2014 so I could offer unique and intimate spiritual, metaphysical and paranormal events to my clients with the occasional fun girls weekend events thrown in there. With the onset of the COVID pandemic, I began offering online events which has allowed clients from all across the country to join in. It's always great to see everyone's smiling faces on my computer screen, but I'm excited for the day when we can meet face-to-face again!
Having been an insurance professional for over 20 years including Executive Director of a physician owned PPO and CEO of a third party administrator, one day I realized I wanted more out of life.  Having run-my-course in the insurance industry, I had an overwhelming desire to explore metaphysics, spirituality and the paranormal.  Hence, Spirited Events by Jofa was born.

As host of these stimulating events, I have introduced my clients to gifted speakers presenting a multitude of metaphysical modalities, spiritual topics and paranormal explorations that open up new and exciting ways of thinking and living.

I had my own spiritual journey searching to find my life purpose by utilizing vision boards, mediums, psychics, numerology, astrology, Human Design, Gene Keys, hand and fingerprint analysis and a lot of deep meditation and soul searching.  The journey was both revealing and validating that I'm on the right path.  In addition, I've learned invaluable lessons from each and every presenter and I am happy to share what I've learned with others to assist them on their own personal journey.

Over the years, I've worked with experienced paranormal investigators and gifted psychic/mediums learning the ins and outs of paranormal investigation.  I've been fortunate to visit many notorious haunted locations as well as assisting those who have experienced unknown activity in their own homes and work places.  Full-bodied apparitions, shadow figures, white mists, disembodied voices and footsteps are all part of my paranormal experiences.  I personally enjoy electronic voice phenomena (EVP) and find I have been very successful in gathering disembodied voices on recordings.

My strengths are manifesting, supporting others in their uniqueness and being a creative force in the world by bringing creativity, beauty and individuality to myself and others.  I am able to distill complex and elusive information and make it clearer to impart to others.  My hand analysis shows gift markers of a Meaning Maker / Spiritual Teacher, Messenger and Seer.  Using my empathic gift and intuitiveness, I derive my deepest satisfaction in helping others.  Many of my clients who have participated in their first paranormal events have experienced their very first live EVPs during the events.  What a thrill it is to see their faces when they hear a disembodied voice on the recording answering their question!

I hope you'll join me for all of the intriguing, thought-provoking and entertaining events offered by Spirited Events by Jofa.  Together let's explore the world, the universe, the unknown, ourselves and life!
