Michael Tarantella

January 21, 1977 – June 28, 2025 

elevated ik9oc With broken hearts, we announce the sudden and tragic passing of Michael Tarantella on June 28, 2025, at the age of 48. Michael was a fun-loving, kind-hearted man whose warmth, humour, and generosity left a lasting impact on everyone who knew him. He had a remarkable way of making people feel seen, loved, and included — always with a smile and often with laughter. He leaves behind his beloved partner, Celeste, and his cherished children, Nicholas, Tristan, and Phoenix, who were the greatest joys of his life. His deep love and devotion to them was evident in everything he did. He will also be deeply missed by his beloved mother Mary, his brothers Tony and Nick, and their families. Michael’s passing is an unimaginable loss for his family and friends. His memory will live on through the love he gave, the stories he told, and the lives he touched.
