The Passing of SK Larry Rossi

It is with profound sadness that we announce the passing of our fellow Brother Knight, Sir Knight, and for all of us, a great friend, Larry Rossi. We have lost a great man, and he will be missed by all of us. Many of us have so many awesome memories of Brother Larry, but we know that he is with Our Lord in Heaven. We all pray for his wife, Lady Glenda, his family and friends at this time. 

This is what Grand Knight Tony Chirco had to say about Brother Larry:

Larry Rossi was one of the finest men to have served the Knights of Columbus and a good friend to many of us. He was very generous with his time, energy and resources. Our prayers go out to his family, particularly his beloved wife Glenda who he professed his love for her nearly every time we were together. May God reward him with an abundance of peace and grace, and for his family as well.

The Visitation Services for Larry Rossi will be Thursday, March 27, 2025 at Molnar Funeral Home, Southgate Chapel at 14032 Northline Road from 1pm to 8pm. The Council Rosary will begin at 6:30pm, followed by the 4th Degree Chalice Ceremony.

On Friday, March 28, 2025, he will be instate at St. Pius X Catholic Church, 14101 Superior in Southgate at 8:30am, followed by Mass at 10am, also at St. Pius X Catholic Church. The celebrant will be Fr. Bob McCabe. Interment will be at Michigan Memorial Park Cemetery, 32163 W. Huron River Drive, Flat Rock, Michigan.
