My name is Michael Giaquinto, and I’m raising funds to give my father the funeral he deserves.

A huge heart. A giving nature. A confident and charming man.

These are just a few of the incredible traits that made my dad so special. He was the energy, the provider, and the glue of our family. He had a way of lighting up every room with his humor, his optimism, and his love, even when life got hard.

My dad was funny. He always cracked jokes, always smiled. Even without the full use of his arms and legs, he remained hopeful and strong for everyone around him. His love for his family and friends never wavered, and he always put others before himself.

He didn’t have much, but he gave everything. Now it’s my turn to try and give him something back: a proper goodbye.

I’m asking for help covering the funeral costs and related expenses. Anything you can contribute, whether it’s a donation or simply sharing this page, means the world to me and my family.

Thank you for helping us honor an incredible man.

With love,

Michael Giaquinto
