Eric John Caruana
June 6, 1987-October 2, 2024
Eric, as many of you know as Ricky, was tragically and unexpectedly taken from us on October 2, 2024.
His passing comes as a shock to his family, loved ones and friends, who are still reeling at his loss. Eric lived a very vibrant life and still had so much ahead of him. He was taken too soon.
Eric is survived by his son Liam Caruana, his significant other Shawnaia (Shay) Miranda and her son SJ Miranda, his parents Stephanie (James) Hawkins, Eric (Deb Masucci) Caruana, grandmother Judy Caruana, step siblings Kristina (Anthony) Loria, Brittnay (Josh) Mesmer, Dylan Busssom, Justin Masucci, Michael Dostman, many aunts, uncles, cousins and friends. A particular acknowledgment to A.J. Colombo for always being by his side through thick and thin.
Eric is still living and his heart is still beating through another due to his selfless multiple organ donations that has given the gift of life to several people.
A sincere appreciation to the staff in the Neuro ICU at Strong Memorial Hospital for the support that was given to all of us during this difficult time.
A GoFundMe page has been set up by his cousin, Brittany Dostman, to assist with any medical expenses.
A Celebration of Life is being organized and will be posted when the details are finalized.
