John Forcucci

John Forcucci, 63 of Elyria, passed away peacefully on Thursday, December 7, 2023. He was born January 19, 1960 in Niagara Falls, NY. Most of his life he spent as a hotel manager. He was a big fan of the New York Yankees, Buffalo Bills, and the Cleveland Indians. John loved old music, especially Frank Sinatra and Big Band, classic motion pictures – the oldies, and classic cars. He also enjoyed gardening as well as cooking traditional Italian recipes, many of which he learned from his family. The continuing theme in John’s life is being very traditional in everything. He loved his dogs, but above all, John loved celebrating holidays with his family. He will be greatly missed by all who knew him.

John is survived by his loving wife of 37 years, Debbie (nee Radachi); children, Ashley, Johnny, and Michael Forcucci; brothers, Joseph (Cheryl), Michael (Candy), and Chuck (Bobbie) Forcucci; along with several nieces and nephews.  He was preceded in death by his parents, Joseph and Josephine Forcucci and a son, Dominic Forcucci.
