Michael S. Guzzardi

Some truth in life is hard to accept. Mike your memories will never be forgotten. Wherever you are brother, Rest in Peace. Lisa, Lauren and Mike my deepest sympathy is with you in your time of grieving.

Mike: I fondly remember countless conversations over the years beginning with your first days as an analyst in Suffolk. Whether we ended up chatting about business, families or outside interests, it was always a pleasure. A professional, a gentleman, and a friend. Peace.

Lauren – our hearts are with you as you navigate through this difficult time. We are so sorry to hear this sad news and sending strength your way.
Love,
Maddy and Mike (From the Crossfit Transcend days)

My heart is so sad for all of you. Michael was a great man and left a great family. I hope you find peace and the strength to endure this sadness. God bless all of you. All our love Carol and Greg

I am saddened to hear of Michael’s passing. My memories of him go way back to his younger days as a child on Madison Avenue in Waterbury, CT. I was a friend of his sister, Marcia, and he was a classmate of my brother, Jim, at St Francis Xavier School. I have many fond memories of the Guzzardi Family and time spent at their home. My heartfelt sympathy goes to his family, especially his sister, Marcia.

I am deeply saddened to read the paper this evening. I am terribly sorry for your loss. So many memories come flooding back. I guess it’s not an exaggeration to say I was there from the beginning through high school. Mike, his Mom and Dad, his sisters and especially his grandmother and grandfather were, and are, the most wonderful people anyone could imagine. I should know, I’m one of the kids that practically lived at their home. I’m a better person for knowing them, I’m grateful for making their acquaintance and I’m thankful for our friendship during those formative years. All of you are in my thoughts and prayers. God bless your families and keep you in His loving embrace.

Where do I begin? To say I am devastated is an understatement. My heart breaks for Lisa, Lauren, Michael and Marsha. Mike G- Incomparable. Irresistible. Irreplaceable. It’s hard to express my feelings in a few short sentences about a man I’ve been friends with for about six decades. Although I haven’t seen that much of Mike since his move to Long Island I could fill an encyclopedia with memories of our youth, when nearly a day went by that we weren’t together or on the phone with each other. Tremendous person. Tremendous family. Tremendous loss. No more suffering at God’s side big guy- rest in eternal peace.
