Michael Renzi's Legacy: Aid for Ilah

Renzi, Michael Renzi. Just his name brought a smile to my face and to everyone who called him, friend. A better and more God-fearing man has never lived. He's my lifelong best friend, shooting partner, and the brother I never had. Everyone who met and came to know and love Michael is a better person for it today. Our eldest son is named after him. That's the kind of man he was.

June 20, 2025, a mere three months after marrying Ilah Brock Renzi, the love of his life, in a beautiful ceremony, Mike was diagnosed with liver cancer. The horrible disease quickly ravaged him. Renzi went home to Jesus on 8/11/2025.

If ever someone was in need, Renzi was always the first to step up and offer help. His helping hand was wholehearted. He worked tirelessly until the task was complete. I counted on Mike many times at Essex Ranch, when Dad passed, and again when Mom passed. He always came through for me and many others when we were in need. Mike needs to count on us now to give Ilah a helping hand.

Michael and Ilah's needs are many. Final arrangements must be made. Travel expenses for medical treatment. Final medical expenses and, most importantly, a financial cushion for Ilah.

No amount that you give is too little. No amount that you give is too much. The important thing is that we give, and we return to Michael and Ilah the love that Renzi shared with everyone around him.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart,

Bill Essex
