Michael it is still so hard to understand why you are not with us after four years there is no change the pain of your loss it is as strong has the day you left us. Mom said today if tears could build a stairway to heaven and heart ache make a road we would come up to heaven and take you back home. We cherish our memory of you as a loving son, brother and the wonderful Uncle you would have been to Michael Ryan.
Its a lonely road I travel everyday without you, there are so many days I say I should call Michael and see if he wants to go with me for a ride a hike or why you are you not at your own shop cutting hair, or going out with friends telling us about new adventures in your life, or part of family gatherings making us laugh or calling your sister and brother to see how they are doing , or giving you some Fatherly wisdom or you giving me the same and telling me its okay pops.
As Mom always says we were so fortunate to have you in our lives for 29 years you gave us so much balance and put into prospective what being a parent is truly about.
My sense tells me though that you are looking out for all of us and the lord has put your special talent to work as an angle to bring laughter and good things to everyone who knew you and loved you and still loves you as I do for eternity.
Love always Dad

Michael first and foremost I love you .On December 21 2010 You would of celebrated your 33rd birthday, it seems like a day ago you were 29 and with us all sharing your wonderful personality and talents with us.
There is not a day that goes by, that I do not think about you and how much you meant to us and how much I miss you, I have concluded that there will be no change in the pain of your loss for me.
Every day that I go into the forest, back trails and mountains I look for signs that you are watching over us, and sometimes they come and it continues to give me faith that we will be together again some day.
The other day while taking parker and mason for a hike I stopped to tie my boots prior to that I was thinking of you and was looking for a sign that you were okay .I laid my gloves on the ground tied my boots and moved on about a half mile afterwards I realized I had forgotten my gloves where I stopped to tie my boots. I returned to the spot I looked up and there carved in the tree was an engraving I made several years ago and had completely forgotten about it and would have never remembered which tree it was among hundreds of them. The engraving was a small memorial to your memory it was clear and well pronounced, at that moment I knew you were okay and it allowed me a few minutes of reflection and piece.
On your birthday we will place a light of remembrance at your resting place; this light will represent our forever burning love of you.

My dearest son Michael Ryan in this third year nothing for me has changed since you left us, the heartache of your loss still pounds against my chest, A Father's love for his son cannot be described in a few sentences it is a lifetime words and actions that tell the story of how proud a Dad is of their children, your lifetime was so short but your presence in my every day existence is inseparable from me. There are days that are so heavy in pain from missing you that I cannot even describe. I sit for hours at night in a daze still trying to understand it all, but there is no relief, because you are not here to talk to, to smile at, to do little things for you to show you my love for you. Each hour and each day and now three years I know it will be soon I will see you again, and as I always say I will be able to walk with you, smile with you , talk to you and embrace you again. Mom has put into words a loving memorial today that reads Michael Ryan OUR ARE HEARTS STILL ACTIVE WITH PAIN AND OUR SILENT TEARS TELL US HOW MUCH WE LOVE YOU AND MISS YOU AND WHAT YOUR LOSS TO US MEANS KNOW ONE WILL EVER KNOW.

My son our love for you is as ever stong as the day you were born, there is not an hour that goes by that I do not think of you in these last two tears.
Life is a haze for me because you are so much part of us and when I reflect on our time together I simply disolve like a ocean wave knocking me down over and over again.
The world is full of troubling things everyday and I find myself very sensitive to all the sensless things that go on, because I know how precious you were to us all and to think how callous some people are and then I wonder why you and our family has been dealt such a loss becaused you loved us and we loved you so much and those who just throw it away go on doing uncaring things.
I do look forward to the day when we will talk again, walk with each other again, and smile again. I do however sense at times you are with us watching over us giving us signs that you are not afraid and that you are in a better place that does not bother you because you know we will be
together again. In closing I enjoyed so much rasing you, talking with you and yes the great haircuts you gave me your Dad made me feel so proud of you, Because you always made all of those around you feel better about themselves and made them look good as well when you took special care to cut their hair.I miss you so very much and always will.
I love eternally.
You ever loving Dad.

Michael Ryan Iannuzzi my loving son the world is no longer bright to me or clear it is so gray and fuzzy ,this last year as been so unbelievably painful, I cry every day as I of think you, I could have never imagined before you left us how much of a bond a Father has for his son's and how much I miss you my son, a loving son and I will never stop loving you or stop holding onto your vivid cherished memory ,that has not changed in life or in passing.
Everyday that goes by I keep thinking it's all a bad dream and that I will wake to find you Sitting at home with a smile and a funny story.
There are so many of us who mourn the loss of a child ,and its seems so unfair , I mean I do not want to give my life story , but as a little boy I can remember sitting with some friends in the church yard and we began talking about the future and when it came to me I simply said I cannot wait to get married and have children, Michael it was wonderful to raise you , play with you , encourage you ,yes and even argue with you , I miss those days of piano lessons , football practice , baseball games the shore and the vacations , I can still hear me telling you in Virginia beach one summer " hey buddy when are you coming out of the water".. IN A MINUTE DAD IN A MINUTE .. I do have the memories but it would be so much better if I could share them with you.
I miss you so so much, I will never be the same again my son , until we meet as Father and son and then I will hold you ,talk to you and tell you how much I love you and at that time you will say it again to me as you use to say " I love you Pops".

Dear Michael
I am waering a pair of shoes.
They are ugly shoes.
Uncomfortable shoes.
I hate my shoes.
Each day I waer them, and each day I
wish I had another pair.
Some days my shoes hurt so bad that
I do not think I can take another step.Yet, I continue to wear them.I get funny looks wearing these shoes.
They are looks of sympathy.
I can tell in others eyes that they are
glad they are my shoes and not theirs.
They never talk about my shoes.
To learn how awful my shoes are
might make them uncomfortable.
To truly understand these shoes you
must walk in them.
But, once you put them on,you can
never take them off.
I now realize that I am not the only
one who wears these shoes.
There are many pairs in this world.
Some women are like me and ache
daily as they try and walk in them.
Some have learned how to walk in
them so they dont't hurt quite as much.
No woman deserves to wear these
shoes.
Yet, because of these shoes I have strength to face anything.
They have made me who I am.
I will forever walk in the shoes of a
woman who has lost a child.
Michael it has been one year, I miss you so much. I will wear these ugly shoes the rest of my life.
Love you always

Michael Ryan Iannuzzi - Eulogy
December 21, 1977 ~ April 7, 2007
Let me begin by thanking everyone for coming today. This is a very trying time for the Iannuzzi family and those of us who cared about Michael. Your attendance here today reminds us all that Michael was loved and will be missed tremendously. A little less than 6 years ago, I stood before many of you as we said good-bye to my father. Today, I stand before you as we say good-bye to a son, a brother, a nephew, a cousin, a grandson and a dear friend. I have been asked to say a few words on behalf of family members and friends as we remember Michael and remind ourselves how fragile life is. I can assure you that this is the most difficult thing I have had to do in my young life. It is not easy to say good-bye to someone you love, someone who has been such a prevalent part of your life, of all our lives. But we must remember that today we are only saying good-bye to Michael in the physical sense. His spirit, his demeanor, his smile, his memory must live on in all of us.
On the morning of April 8th, I received a phone call informing me that our friend Michael had passed away. I immediately tried to convince myself that the phone call was part of a bad dream. My heart began to race, my breathing was short and shallow, I began to sweat, and my mind was moving to fast to really digest the shocking news. In time, it all subsided, and the realization became evidently clear, Michael was gone. A part of me died in that moment, a void has been created that will never be filled. I know that all of you in this room tonight feel the same way. There is a part of all of you that Michael took with him in his passing, a part of all of us that he has taken to the next life. It now becomes our duty to remember Michael. The memories that we are left with is now the avenue by which we must kept his spirit alive. There is no greater pain than losing someone that is close to us, someone we love, someone that made us laugh, someone that was there when we cried, someone that extended his hand when we fell, someone that looked after everyone that was close to him. We have, indeed, suffered a great loss. We must remember. I will say that again, we must remember.
I have known Michael and his family since I was about 7 years old. During that time, we have created an infinite number of memories. Anyone who knew Mike then knows he used to be really, really small. Well, Mike and I used to have this height chart on a wall in my bedroom growing up. We used to write little comments back and forth to each other next to hash-marks by our heights. The one-thing I hated to be called back then was scrawny or goon. Naturally, Mike would use both words in his comments to me, something like gIfm catching up to you, scrawny goon.h Of course, I would return the joke by calling him a midget, or a dwarf, both terms he hated. Comments like that continued for years. Eventually, Mike almost caught up with mecalmost. What began as a height chart, on one little wall in my room, eventually spread into bigger comments, sometimes whole stories, that spread to every wall in my room. In our teenage years, all of our friends added their personal touches. By the time Mike and I graduated high school, my bedroom walls were covered in writings, pictorials, poems, dates and the stories that made those dates significant. A person could literally walk into my room and read about the memories of our childhood and teenage years as if they were reading pages of a book. Everyone who spent time at my house knew the significance of those walls, and the idea of that started with Michael.
I remember the days Mike and I would spend on our BMX bikes, Mike with his GT that he inherited from his brother Jack, me with my Mongoose, a hand me down from my own brother. We would ride everywhere, exploring our new boundaries of freedom together. Soon after, we both bought dirt bikes and our boundaries began to expand even further. I remember trying to teach Mike how to let out a clutch and

Dear Iannuzzi family,
I am sorry for your loss. Though I had not seen Michael much since graduation, we were close in our early high school years and some of my memories from high school include time spent with him...when he was so cute you wanted to pinch his cheeks. That young, carefree kid is how I'll remember him

Michael - Where do I begin? When I think of you, I think of endless summers at your house when I would sleepover for a week just so we can play every single day. Didn't we have monopoly games that never ended and would last the whole week through? Remember the summer we made friendship bracelets for everyone we knew? Or, the unforgettable summer we all packed in your car and went to Shelby's and bought me a hamster? Remember how my mom freaked? Or how on those hot summer nights, your parents would take us to Dairy Queen over where Acme used to be (I think). How about at every holiday since we were young, we would pretend our soda was really wine. We used to get such a kick out of that. I know you were so mad at me the time I blew dry your hair and you looked like Danny Wood from the New Kids on The Block!! Or, how it seems one summer we were riding your Big Wheels up and down your driveway and then the next summer we were riding regular bikes all over your neighborhood? I used to get so dirty and loved it because I knew my mom would freak out if she saw me playing in the woods looking for snakes! Or, how we would pretend we were the mom and dad and play "taxi". I think of the hours we spent sitting in the drivers and passengers side of the car - going nowhere physically - but letting our imagination take us everywhere. How about going to Nana's and being "tree people" and putting leaves in our sneakers and pretend we were flying? Or going in nana's "forbidden basement" and playing behind the bar or sneaking upstairs just because we knew we weren't allowed up there? Or, how Jack and Tracey used to sucker us into playing the game where they would peg us (hard) from behind with the yellow tennis ball....they got us every time. Then, we got older, and our conversations would revolve around which asthma inhaler we were on at the moment. You found a forever friend in my husband Peter. He would really look forward to seeing you and hanging out with you. He says that you better practice your Madden football because he can't wait to beat you again!! Giant games will never be the same for Peter. But I do remember how you texted me to tell me how much you loved my stuffed pork chop after the Chicago game. How come it seems that for all the Secret Santas that we had in our family, you and I would always get each other? Actually, you had me for this last Christmas, and you got me red pajamas and matching slippers. As I sit here writing this, I am wearing the red pajamas. I will never get rid of them. However, I guess the memories that stick out the most revolve around my wedding day. When we were deciding on the groomsmen, there wasn't a question in my mind - I knew I wanted you to be a part of my day. However, the funniest part of the whole day was when after our wedding, you had to get your clothes out of our bridal suite from earlier that day. However, you didn't want to leave our room...you were laughing and rolling around on the bed..and me and Peter were like "Uh...Michael....ahem, ahem, it IS our wedding night...do you mind if you remember what hotel room is yours AND GET TO IT?" I remember we literally had to push you out of our room!!! But it's obvious you had a good time at our wedding because of about 2 hours of video footage, you are dancing and in front of the camera for an hour and 59 minutes of it!! In closing, I couldn't possibly write all of my memories of you - but I wanted to write some of the funniest for people to read and then smile. On behalf of Peter and I, we will miss you endlessly and we both have special places in our hearts for you, my cousin Michael. Love you forever.

As I sit here and try to make some kind of sense of Michael's passing, I can't. How can you? He was loved by so many and he was filled with so much life. He had so many experiences in his future to enjoy and he and his family did not deserve this. Believer or not, there has to be a higher purpose for us all, because without one, a loss of this magnitude would be unbearable. Michael, we all love you and we will see you again. Rest in peace.

To the Iannuzzi Family,
Being a close friend of Gina's for over 12 years and your neighbor, I would like you to know that I am so very sorry for your loss. Michael was such a great person. Even though he and I were not "close friends" I've known him for many years though Gina and always looked forward to seeing him again. He would bring me so much joy just by being in his presence. I remember years ago, I would glance outside my window in hopes that I would catch him walking Rosie outside and than how excited I would get when Gina and I would come over to swim in your pool hoping he was home. He will always hold a special place in my heart for the rest of my life and I feel so very blessed to have known him and hold such wonderful memories of him. I will carry these memories on with me for the rest of my life. You raised such a wonderful son and you have so much to be proud of. I know that right now Michael is in heaven making all the angels laugh the same way he made me laugh. May God carry you though this difficult time and help you to find peace in that your son touched many lives, including mine.
My deepest condolences are with you.
Love, Gina Fiorentino

On this impossible day we buried our son Michael a treasure of a human being a loving son, brother, nephew, cousin and friend to so many. There is so much pain in this daunting task for any one who has gone through it.
But now we will hold Michael's memory for eternity.
The memory of our Michael has started in these last few days by the outpouring of love for him through all of you that came to pay tribute to him. This absolutely was astonishing...nearly 500 friends came to tell Michael how much they cared about him and loved him.
The many cards, letters and tributes that were presented for Michael by all of you manifests itself as a standing testimony to The newest brightest star in the universe.
Within this testimony it would difficult to mention every person by name that provided us the strength to move forward however, I must mention that Michael's Uncle Nick and his Aunt Georgette and his Aunt Joyce provided us a tremendous level of support. To include their children and spouses this support at such a tragic time in our lives allowed us to move forward over the last few days in honoring our beloved Michael.
Our heart felt gratitude goes out to all of you who have provided true heart felt testimony to Michael.
Nick Marchitto Michaels Uncle and his Mom's brother moved us all today at the Church with a beautiful song that he sang for Michael and to us all for Michael at the church. This song is beyond priceless in its meaning to us all --Michael and our family are blessed to have such a fine Uncle"Nicky".
Michael's friends Keith, Ron, Tom, Danny, John and Jason and many others
Were pillars of strength for our family over the last few days as they stood in unison for Michael's legacy of much love and friendship that was magnificent--Keith Goforth --the eulogy you delivered on behalf of yourself and all of Michaels friends was a gift from God in how you delivered in honor of Michael no words can describe this offering of love for our beloved Michael--and is Cousin Gina made sure that Michael's celebration of his life would be reflective for us all by choosing the right place at the right time for our beloved Michael and took so much pressure off of us at a time of need.
The Funeral director Michael Cinotti and is staff handle this showing of love for Our beautiful Michael flawlessly and you are commended for that-Father George from St Jude's provided a an inspirational prospective for all of us that in Christ we will rise to be fulfilled --To all of Michael's relatives extended family and Many friends and co-workers you should understand that at a Time that our hearts have melted from the loss of our cherished Michael your presence and out pouring of love and affection allowed our family to move through these last days where otherwise they may have been untenable.
To everyone who loves our Michael Thank You for your all thoughts of love and prayers for surely he is walking with God in heaven.

This is a very sensitive and emotional time, so my prayers go out to Mike's family and friends. May each and every memory of the moments you all shared with Mike help in the healing process.

Mike,
After attending your service last night, I think you'd be utterly amazed, by the amount of love spread throughout that cramped room.. For your guests, we all stood outside in the bitter cold, all in order to see you and tell you how much you meant to us.
I'll never forget our times in school, as we've had many classes together. I always enjoyed you in class, as you seemed to drive all the teachers crazy! On many occassion you were able to re-direct our teachers, sidetracking them, and they would forget to teach or give us homework.. You had a way of lighting up a room. Your humor, attitude, and strong personality came out, even as a young kid in school. Growing up in this small town, we all seemed to know each other, and crossed paths a few times. We could only hope that you could be with us today. We hope that all your dreams, passions, love, and friendships will be carried thru your friends and family for all of eternity.

Although it has been a while since weve seen you, time seems to mean nothing right now. Remembering bonfires and parties and just hanging out everyday as if it were yesterday. You were always so carefree, you never let anything get you down. You never hesitated to give much needed advice, and made sure that any conversation you had was ended with a smile and a laugh. You have touched more people in the short life that you lived than many people who live to be a hundred can ever claim to have. Although we mourn your death, we also celebrate your life. Your smile and laugh lives on inside all of us, and for that we are forever grateful to you. Thank you so much Mike... for everything.

I didn't want to believe that this was true. I remember my first memories of Mike from Tulsa Trail from second grade recess to Mrs. Hatten's, Space Farms, and the New York cruise. He was just a fun person to be around. When I saw him again a few years for the first time since graduation I was happy to see that that didn't change. He still had his sense of humor and easy going nature. The few times a year I would make it down and go out the night wouldn't seem official until I saw Mike and joked around with him since he always made me laugh. I'm going to miss him. My thoughts and prayers to his family.

I sit here and just stare at nothing. How can I gather my thoughts and try to make sense of it all... What do I say to you, a friend I have had forever? Many memories I will keep of you....from being a Tulsa Trail Tiger to middle school dances to High School pranks, having bellyflop and cannonball contests in my pool, of course that great tan you loved to show off in the summer, to hanging at WVU or just hanging out and doing absolutely nothing.... I will miss you and all the fun we had. I will miss you being goofy you. Thank you for inviting all of us into that big heart of yours. I hope you realize how much we all love and adore you and hope that brings you peace. XOXOXO

Michael we didn't have alot of time to know you with us living in Florida. but the frw times will never be forgotten. when we lived in NJ and went camping, you were there but not yet born and we didn't get to know that smiling wit for several years.But when you visited us, we immediately new what a great kid you were. You started out scared of the water, and within a few days you thought you were an olympic swimmer and how you caught hermit crabs and tried to feed them salami and hid them in your fathers car for the trip back to NJ, cnly to have a mysterious smell arise half way home. We will never forget your dancing with your grandmother at the wedding.To Jack, Rosemarie, Danya, and John, we wish we had the words to help comfort you and make the pain go away, but we don't, but you can be proud of your son & brother.God Bless and we will keep you all in our prayers, see you soon, take care.

Michael,
I have always thought of you as the boy version of me in our family and because of that I have always felt so close to you. I always looked at you as more of an older brother, than a cousin and for that you will be so greatly missed. I promise to keep your fun spirit with this family, but the life of the party you will forever be. I will always be here for Dayna, Jack, and your Mom and Dad to tell them a joke or a good story and to keep them laughing, because I know thats exactly how you would want it. I know that you okay because you are with Nana now and she will take care of you. I'm so sorry that this happened and I love you so much. See you soon my favorite Italian.

Dear Rosemarie, Jack, Dayna and Jack,
I can't find the words to really express how deeply sorry I feel. I spoke briefly with Michael at Aunt Emma's wake and remember thinking what a warm and loveable person he was. His smile and eyes did reveal a true spirit and loving soul. The love that Michael brought you will never escape your hearts, it has been there forever. The essence of his soul will remain in the hearts of all who knew him forever. With deepest sympathy, Pat, Phil, Cara and Crista.

Mike,
It feels like we were just at the reunion catching up on life, and years gone by. I remember that little guy with the braces in 8th grade that was always joking and fun to be around. We always continued to get along. May you walk through the Kingdom's Heavenly gates with that same smile on your face. I'm sure you're looking down and seeing the love that so many people have for you. We tend to take those things for granted as we mill about in our own daily, busy lives. My thoughts and prayers are with your family at this time. May God be there to guide them and give them comfort. Bless you always... rest peacefully...

Michael, I love you with all my heart. You truly are my best friend. Without you I feel like a shell of a person, I will never be complete again. We shared a bond that was enveloped with complete understanding and compassion. From childhood to adulthood you were the focus of my admiration. I store in my heart and mind so many wonderful memories and I know I am truly blessed because we shared a very rare relationship. One of my fondest memories is the day you taught me to ride a bike, I told you "not to let go" of the bike and now I promise you that I will never let go of you. You will live on through me; I am dedicated to keeping you alive. I am no longer living my own life; I am living a life for the two of us. I will forever be your "baby sister!"

Dear Rosemarie, Jack,Dayna & Jack,
A few years ago Michael and I shared an elevator ride on our way up to visit my Aunt Emma, his Nonna, who was recovering from surgery. I could tell from that short ride that he was a special kid. He really did inherit the best from both Rosemarie and Jack. He was devoted to his Nonna...and for those who knew Emma...she to him. In later years, she bragged to me about a haircut Michael had given her.
Your loss is great, your sorrow deep....there is a new star in heaven..
With love, Marianne & Frank

There a no words that can say how much I love you, you were a special child and a great young man.
You always had a smile on your face that was contagious and you melted my heart.
Michael you told me we had a bound unlike any other mother and son and that you were so lucky, no I was the lucky one.
My heart is truly broken because of the piece of you that will always be missing. I will always love you and in my heart you will always be forever young, forever young!
