Obituary for Ryan Michael Tubiolo
Webster: Passed away suddenly on Monday, November 22, 2021 after a courageous and brave battle with Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy. He is survived by his father, Kevin Tubiolo; mother, Shelia Tubiolo-Hassler; sister and caregiver, Jessica Flora (Bryon); brother and caregiver, Nicholas Tubiolo; nephew, Alessio Flora; uncle, Joe Tubiolo; grandfather, Joe Tubiolo (Karen); grandmother, Linda Caruso; and best friend and caregiver, Colin Storan. He is predeceased by his grandfather, Louie Taylor; great-grandparents, Giovanni and Florence Caruso.
Ryan was a beloved son, brother, uncle, grandson, friend and indisputable G.O.A.T. He had a passion for life and refused to let his disability define him.
Ryan graduated with honors from Webster Thomas HS in 2018 and was a proud honorary member of the Webster Thomas Titans football team. Ryan received many awards over the years for academics, volunteer work and many of his incredible accomplishments highlighting his incredible strength and courage. Ryan played several years of challenger baseball and football thanks to Septa and the community support to build Miracle field so persons with disabilities can compete on an accessible field. He also competed for over 10 years in the Empire State games earning himself countless gold medals. Ryan was the MDA goodwill ambassador in 2012 dedicating himself to advocating and working to raise awareness and funding for the MDA. Ryan also served many years as honorary captain and representative for PPMD's Coach to cure Muscular Dystrophy for the Brockport Golden Eagles football team (Coach and friend, Jason Mangone). Ryan was a homegrown and loyal fan of the Buffalo Bills.
Ryan was blessed to find Cincinnati Children's hospital for incredible care, treatments and surgeries that enabled him to regain the ability to walk independently for an additional 2 years until he was 11 years old. Ryan embraced the city of Cincinnati and its sports teams (Bengals, Bearcats and Reds) and was able to attend games of all his favorite teams.
Every year Ryan watched the inspiring Jimmy V speech from the 1993 ESPYs and adopted an amazing quote and motto he wanted share with the world to prove that living with a disability or illness would not stop him from loving, laughing and living: Muscular Dystrophy can take away all my physical abilities. It cannot touch my mind, it cannot touch my heart and it cannot touch my soul. And those three things are going to carry on forever. "DON'T GIVE UP...DON'T EVER GIVE UP!"
A Celebration of Life will be held in his honor Sunday, December 12, 2021, 1-4 PM at the Webster Arboretum, 1700 Schlegel Rd., 14580.
