Ronald Rossi Obituary

Ronald Michael Rossi SUMMERVILLE - Ronald Michael Rossi, 76, of Summerville, SC entered into eternal rest on Sunday, October 2, 2016 peacefully at home with his family. Born April 15, 1940 in Queens, New York. He was a veteran of the US Coast Guard. He is survived by his daughter, Barbara Rossi, son, Michael Rossi, granddaughter, Courtney Wiggins and son-in-law Gregory Jones. He and the children's mother, Ilene Hatch, remained the best of friends. Together they set the bar for an amazing and loving family dynamic. He is also survived by his brother Lawrence Rossi of Centereach, NY and his sister Dolores Nisito of Massapequa, NY. Uncle Ronnie was the Godfather to Peter Rossi and Thomas Whiteley, Jr. A loving Italian family man with many nieces, nephews, cousins, aunts and uncles whom he loved deeply. He was the son of the late Americo Rossi and Jean Rossi and was predeceased by two brothers, Frank and Ricky. He enjoyed laughter, dancing, singing, and spending time with family. He learned to cook late in life and we consider him our master chef. He figured out the secret to a happy life and enjoyed every moment. Mr. Ron was a humble yet proud man who won the heart of everyone he met. We hope you had the opportunity to get to know our dad. Xoxo Poppa "May we all meet in heaven".
