Our precious baby boy Larz Christain Massaro Jr passed away very unexpectedly in the early hours of April 11th, 2025. He was born in the early hours of January 8th, 2025 in Petoskey Hospital. He was the most precious baby boy with the absolute biggest smile. He loved to spend time with his mom & dad staring at bears on the lamp in the living room. In the weeks leading up to his passing, he was becoming so social. He never wanted his big sister to leave him. He was always yelling for her to come back to playing with him whenever she tried to walk away from him. The bond between him and his big sister was so strong even though they're both so young.
Little man will forever be missed by his parents, Larz Massaro Sr and Laura Massaro, Big sister, Aurora Massaro, Grandma; Jackie Wiertalla, Grandpa; Robert Gallagher, Grandpa; Greg Massaro, Uncle; Sebastian Wiertalla, Aunt and uncle; Destiny and Josh Smith, Cousins; Abel and Devyn, Godparents; Destiny and Hannah Carroll, with so many more friends and family, such as Great Aunts, Uncles, and grandparents, who're going to miss him so much.
Larz Jr was welcomed home by his Grandma; Deanna Doughtery, Grandma; Linda Simmions, Great Grandfather; Gregory Wiertalla, Great Great Grandparents James & Elaine Noel, plus many more with big open arms to give him all the cuddles he loved so much.
Our handsome little man was taken from us way too soon. His services will be held at Nordman Funeral Home on April 15th, at 7pm. Public visitation starts at 5pm for anyone who would like to take the chance to come say "goodbye" to our boy. We understand many didn't get to meet him yet & that is okay, everyone is welcome to come and give him their love in this last little bit of time everyone gets with him.
