Carl Gold Obituary
CARL “RYAN” GOLD age 42, beloved son of Ingrid (Ricchino) (nee Fassbender) and the late Carl E. Gold; dearest brother of Lisa LoPiccolo (nee Ricchino) (husband Sam); devoted father of Victoria and Ella; cherished uncle of Cody Bulman (wife Emma) and Jada DiVincenzo and great uncle of Oliver and Maxine; treasured nephew of Paul and Kim Gold; loving companion of Michelle Morrison; dear cousin and friend of many.
Ryan was born January 3, 1982 in Cleveland, Ohio and graduated from Mayfield High School in 2000. As a hardworking and handy person, he found his niche in the construction field. Staying physical and working out was a way of life for Ryan. He played hockey at Mayfield and in a Cleveland Heights league, in addition to hiking, skiing, camping, running and yoga. For more leisure activities, Ryan enjoyed watching movies, listening to the Grateful Dead but, most of all, he delighted in using his culinary skills to prepare delicious meals for his family and many friends. Above all, family was at the center of his attention and they will forever miss his contagious smile, silly jokes, compassion and caring personality. Ryan passed away suddenly on December 23, 2024 but will never be forgotten. His family asks that you join them in honoring and celebrating Ryan.
