Rocky and Rachel Iammarino of North Ridgeville, Ohio, Killed in Tragic Motorcycle Accident
Rocky and Rachel Iammarino, a beloved couple from North Ridgeville, Ohio, tragically died in a motorcycle accident on October 11, 2024. Rocky, originally from Cleveland, Ohio, was a former plumber at NoWhere in Tel Aviv, Israel. The devastating accident has left their family heartbroken and struggling to cope with the sudden loss.
The couple leaves behind three children—Jude (16), Jonah (13), and Zao (11). Jonah was set to celebrate his 14th birthday just days after the accident. The unimaginable pain and grief that the children and family are facing is beyond words. Rocky and Rachel will be forever missed by those who knew and loved them.
Funeral arrangements and an official obituary will be shared by the family at a later time.
For over twenty years, the Iammarinos were closely connected with Becky Marr and her husband, through their homeschool group. This year, however, the family decided to enroll their children in Christian Community School and North Ridgeville Public School. In light of this tragic loss, a GoFundMe campaign is being organized to help cover expenses and ease the financial burden caused by the sudden loss of income.
The Iammarino children are currently being cared for by Rocky’s parents, Dennis and Jo Iammarino, and Rachel’s mother, Jane Baruth. The family is asking for prayers as they make critical decisions regarding the future care of the children.
This tragic event has left a community in mourning, and the Iammarino family is in need of support as they navigate this heartbreaking time.
