Rust holes in rocker panels

My rocker panels have huge rust holes in them,
I knew they were weak earlier in the summer,
but I didn't know there were holes.  The winter salt
is vicious up here.

What's the _right_ way to fix this short
of replacing the whole car?  I don't really
wanna just cover it up, I want to cut out
all the rust and close it up tight so it doesn't
keep going.

My first thought was - cut them
out of a parts car with clean rockers and
weld them in, or what?

The hole's in the area behind the door.
Down where it turns under, you can't see it
standing right next to the car, but I don't
want the body to rust off it, either.

Can someone advise me on this?
I still haven't heard from anyone.

I know you Cali/TX/AZ guys don't have this problem.
