Michelle Scarpitta Obituary

Published by Legacy Remembers on Nov. 28, 2001.
Michelle Scarpitta was a compliance officer for Eurobrokers on the 83rd floor of Tower 2 in the World Trade Center. She loved her job and the people she worked with. She spent much of her time in Long Island with her family and friends. There were many broken hearts on September 11th, among those where the people Michelle held most dearly in her heart, including her mom, Julie; her younger brother, Steven; Uncle Tony, Aunt Gene and Uncle Ed; her cousins, Annmarie and Edward; and her boyfriend, Rob.

One of the things that stands out most about Michelle was her strength. At 26, Michelle was one of the strongest woman I knew, a trait she inherited from her mother. Michelle was a very sensitive and caring person, those of us closest to her got to see that side often. She lived life to the fullest only slowing down when her eyes got tired. Two of her favorite things to do were either going out for drinks or traveling some place new with the girls. She also loved her boyfriend Rob. So much so that things like saving money and making plans for the future became important to her during this last year.

Michelle was one of a kind. What made her so unique and so special was that everything she did she did from her heart. It was impossible to get or stay angry with her, she didn't have a mean bone in her body. She was the absolute best at gaining your trust and keeping your secrets. Unique in every sense of the word. She would ask you for your opinion on something but stuck to her guns if she didn't agree, which was more often then not.

Michelle was the kind of person that would go to your company Christmas party because you didn't want to go alone or show up at your house on your birthday or at Christmas with a gift; not just any gift, the perfect gift. Knowing her it was something great like the blue pants that you were looking for that match your new sneakers perfectly or something you mentioned months earlier and forgot about. She remembered things like that.

Our loss is great but blessed for having known her for the short time we did, she will forever be in our minds and in our hearts. As cliche as this is going to sound, to know her was to love her and we are all better people for having known her. She had so many friends that loved her dearly, both past and present. But she's with her Dad now. Michelle we all love and miss you.

Till we meet again.

Hey Michelle. I did not know you but saw your name mentioned in the 9/11 Memorial Museum instagram. I felt a connection through what I saw and hope you are at peace in a very nice place. Much love and light to you.

Michelle, I still feel your energy and see your smile in my memories that cannot ever be erased. Your spirit lives on forever my beautiful friend! I feel you in my connection with others from our past - one message came through yesterday 9/11 at 519 pm. I am sitting I my childhood bedroom writing of this and thinking of the so many sleepovers, talks, parties, when you lived here. I know it is you shining down from above and bringing us together. Xoxox keep smiling from above!

Your name was on the section of the 9/11 memorial that I first walked up to in 2015, and you struck me because we have the same first name. I never knew you; I was 11 in 2001, but your name has stayed with me. I think of you and your loved ones every year on the anniversary. You are remembered, and it's very clear that you are so, so loved by those who knew you.

Today I am sitting on the beach on Long Island remembering our childhood days on Long Beach. I remember your family beach house and how we had so much fun those days and nights. We actually had fun wherever we went growing up. I remember laughing till we couldnt speak in my room, listening to deafening music, sneaking into your neighbors pool on 75th street, all the sleepovers we had throughout the years, moving out with moms shopping cart as our moving company and causing havoc only we knew how to cause ;). I know your sleeping peaceful now, I still cannot believe its been all these years my friend. I love and miss you very much and will never forget you. Xoxox

September 10, 2019

Michelle,

My heart misses you dearly. Although I don't post here every year, I always conduct a private memorial for you. I am one of your distant cousins. I know this not because of just the name, but you are a splitting image of one of my nieces. Peace be with you till we meet.

Love,

Doing a segment of my 9/11 remembrance essay about you, never knew you since I wasn't born yet but you seem like an amazing person from what everyone is saying. As long as that memorial is there you'll never be entirely gone.

Thinking about you this week and today especially. Must be the spring air coming in :) just thinking back on all of the good memories you and the girls brought into my life cruising the belt with one broken window up in the convertible and singing like the lunatics that we are - so funny, so many good memories. Wishing you were still around and Hoping writing it helps to relieve whatever I'm feeling today. Miss you and see you again one day. Kisses up to heaven, Love you lots.

My dear Michelle you have been on my mind more and more. I miss our friendship so much I miss being able to just pick up the phone and tell you what is going on or vent about what's botheing me. You always listened and never made it about you. You were honestly the most amazing person. I sit here with tears in my eyes because I know I'll never have that again in this lifetime. You truly were a great friend. I pray that you are at peace always and ask that you help me through my hard days and watch over us all. It never gets easier. You have a piece of my heart that can not be replaced. I miss you always. Xoxo

I never knew you or met you. My mom's brother, my uncle, is married to your Aunt Lola. I guess in a way that makes us family. Last summer I went to New York City to visit them and naturally my family went to visit the 9/11 memorial. Aunt Lola asked me to look up your name and take a picture. I did and I saw your name and bio in the directory. Though I was little and I never even knew you I just feel connected somehow, and I am haunted by the feeling. You were truly a beautiful girl and I just know that many were affected by your loss. Nobody that young deserves to go in that way. I will never forget you or this experience and I will always remember taking the picture of your name. Rest in Peace.

12 years and it never gets easier. Life moves on but the hurt will always remain. I stopped watching the reading of the names and choose to honor you by going through old pictures and keepsakes instead. I tell my children about you and to them you are Aunt Michelle their angel. You are always in my heart and mind. You will never be forgotten. I only wish that my children will find a friendship one day like the one you gave me. You truly were a exceptional friend. You made it impossible not to laugh not to enjoy every second of life!! I can honestly not remember a bad time! All great memories wonderful trips and tons of laughs. The best of all was our sleepovers and late night talks that went to the morning. We had a great time no matter where we were. Thank you for that! Love you now and forever!! Xoxo

Hey Michelle (mesh to me)

So many years have gone by & it doesn't hurt missing you any less. I look at all of us now & I always see you missing. We are all some how still in touch with each other. Doesn't have to be every day but we are. I think that would make you happy. But I wish you were here. I've told my children enough about you that they feel they know you. Like I said before, you will never be forgotten.

I love & miss you,
Lil Jenn

Sooo TODAY I can't help but to dedicate my efforts to spreading smiles across
the country! Why? What would prompt this silliness today? On 9/11 we need to
cheer this world up and concentrate on happiness and moving forward.

As I think back to my childhood days, my adolescent & young adult friendships
many things are a blurr it seems... Except one thing- smiling, laughter and joy-
pure soulful joy from within that is.
And today I can only think of one person, my lifelong friend Michelle with her
beautiful smile. I think back as she would smile from ear to ear every time I
would see her- meeting on 75th street and walking to grammar school together,
graduation, high school, birthdays, parties, weddings and funerals. And It
wasn't just me, when she greeted friends, neighbors, teachers and literally
everyone she met on the street, there it was- her smile. The school photographer
would have no challenge with he showing her teeth. Lol Many times It would
almost seem as if she was on the verge of laughter... I can hear her grandmother
now "whats so funny michelle?" and it wasn't just smiles when it was her
birthday (even thought i might point out that was her favorite day). Not just
happy occasions but every single day in the face of challenges, gloomy days and
long rainy ones- still smiling. It was really remarkable.

Today I remember her beautiful smile on the anniversary of the day her smile
she was taken away from this earth. I cannot understand where 12 years have gone
my dear friend? It baffles my mind sometimes.

Michelle, your smile lives on today and every day through your memory, this
email, everyone's day who reads this, their families and friends- across the
country. They will spread the smiles to their friends, family, people they see
on the train, in their cars, at the gas station, clients, colleagues, strangers
and people they will never know! The cycle goes on and on around the world- you
and your energy is alive today! Not just on 9/11 but forever! Thank you for the
beautiful footprint you left on this earth. Michelle my belle RIP, you are not
forgotten!

Here is that day again, the day that always lingers in the back of my mind, haunting me. I always feel so sad, so angry that you got cheated out of a beautiful life, a life full of family and friends. It hurts when I look around and all of us are married with kids and you never had the chance to do that..it's just not fair, I will just never understand..love and miss you always!

I will never forget all of our memories and your beautiful smile!! Everyone misses you as though you just left!! I love you michelle and im so happy to have you a part of my memories!! RIP forever!! Cant wait to dance with you again!!!

Annmarie Donzelli

September 11, 2011

I don't even know where to begin...the loss I feel...this year especially has been the hardest. Its hit me like a ton of bricks. I am devistated that you are not here with me. You should be here. I am always feeling that missing feeling it never goes away. I look at my son and it makes me so angry that you will never meet him. You were a sister to me and the pain of your loss will always haunt me. We have somany wonderful memories, I am so greatful for them. You were such a huge part of my life. I remember that phone call when I was 17 asking me if I want to go to palladium lol. I didn't even have to convincence my mom to let me go! She was so happy I found a new friend! Little did I know I found a sister. It was history after that. All the vacations fun nights out the beach house and the days of shopping going to the gym or taking the car for a cruise looking for guys lol or just hanging in the parking lot. Everyday we spent together was perfect. We never fought. I miss you so much. I often have dreams of your smile and I always wake up crying. I really wish I could go back in time and stop you from going to work that day....to think you took off that monday...why not tuesday...I always say. To be the last person to speak with you in the elevator that day has haunted me. I feel guilty that it was me. Why not your mom why not someone else. I only hope my voice comforted you. I remember our conversation like I recorded it In my head. I play it back and try to understand or figure out a way to save you. Its a terrible guilt I have. I know in my mind I couldn't save you but I'm heartbroken that I couldn't. Ill never forget that day for as long as I live. I don't need to watch the news clips or documentaries or even watch the reading of the names ( I stopped watching a few years ago) I choose to shut all of that out and remember you and what special times we shared. I feel better writing on here as weird as it is I do feel like I'm writing to you over these last 10 years. Certain things can't be replaced and you are one of them. I miss you more then you will ever know. Xoxo

Hey you,

I had a dream on friday that we were all hanging out, i knew i was dreaming. you were laughing that great big laugh, i could never forget it, and had a big smile on your face which i could never forget either. I asked you for a hug and when we hugged i just didn't want to let go. the girls were making fun of me because i was hugging you so hard, but i knew i would be waking up soon and i took advantage of that hug and it was real and it felt almost like you were comforting me. it felt peaceful. It has been a very long time since you came to me in a dream and i have been thinking of you lately. I miss you, wish we could all just be growing up together. Ten years feels like yesterday. I know in my heart that you are in peace in god's kingdom. I love you and miss you. I'll never forget all the great times we shared and what a great part of my life you will always be.

Happy 2009 Michelle. I never wrote in this guest book.... but you are always in my heart. Ive been thinking of you a lot lately, don't know. i stored all my pics away before i moved and i really wanted to look at them and reminisce but i couldn't so i searched for your name and found the website. I guess i just wanted to see you. I got married and have a baby boy, hes five months now and is the love of my life. His name is Salvatore, its funny cause i call him lele, lol - close to your nickname but mostly cause he always says Le -like all the time..lol. Well , just wanted to say hi in a different way this time. Please keep looking out for us all, keep us safe and bless us all with happiness and love. Sweet dreams my friend. Love you very much.

Michelle,

On Sept 11, 2008, as on Sept 11, 2005, a local community here put up a tribute to all the people lost that fateful day. For each they erected an American flag with a picture attached of the person. I photographed your flag and your picture. I cried when I first learned of our loss, then cried again in 2005 and again this year. Michelle, I guess I will always be sad for you and miss you. Hopefully, we will meet again. God bless.

Michelle,

I will never forget hanging out with you and Sheila back in 89. Yeah, we caused trouble, smoked cigarettes, drank....but we had lots of fun - the whole crew.

I remember a long period of time when I did not see you for a while. Then I saw in a pizzeria about 8 years ago. You gave me one of your giant Michelle S. smiles, like only you can give & told me how cute my little girl was. That was the last time I saw you. I'll never forget seeing you that day.

God bless you ~ till we meet again ;)

Your friend always,

Ruby
