Our close friend Rest in peace you are a loss to the world. Eron and nancy

I am still in shock having just learned of Dr G´s passing. He was always such a kind and caring friend, always sharing his time and talents with students, friends and family. I remember him being so faithful to God, sharing stories of his ACOM adventures and competitions, his great advice while a part of the FSU faculty, his love of golf, singing Beatles tunes and strumming on the guitar, and never forgetting to send Christmas and Mother´s Day greetings. A real gentle soul. He was truly loved...

Bobbi, Liz and Ross, I was very sorry to learn of Buzzy's passing. Had Cissy been alive, she would have been devastated. She had a special love for her "little brother". Please know that you will be in my thoughts and prayers. Tom Evans

One of the most memorable things Dr. G taught me was that no matter how busy or caught up in work and medicine we get, nothing is more important than your family and loved ones back home. He told me to always remember to make time for them because nothing is more important. Dr G was a great professor, an amazing educator, but most of all, one of the most loving and caring professors I´ve ever had. May he rest in peace.

So, go forth and make me and yo mama proud!" We have come a long way since he gave us this advice and it resonates now more than ever. All the...

Dr. Giannini was a man who gave himself to the community around him. He was a teacher, a coach, a physician and a father among other things. We will remember him for just that - for many he was a mentor, a father figure and his influence will not be forgotten. He made a career out of helping those who could not help themselves. "...Eternal rest grant unto him, O Lord, and let perpetual light shine upon him. May he and all those souls of the faithful departed, through the mercy of God, rest...
