Ralph A. Rendano 1951-2021
PORT ST. LUCIE, Fla. — Ralph A. Rendano passed away Wednesday, July 28, 2021, from an extended illness at the age of 70, in Florida, where he also resided with his longtime companion, April L. Kirkwood.
Ralph was the owner of both New York Music and RRI Commercial Real Estate.
Ralph will be best remembered as ‘the maker of dreams’ providing the gifts of music to others as well as bringing extraordinary success to the commercial real estate community in Ohio, Florida and Texas.
In his senior year at Ursuline High School in 1969, he wrote an essay on what he wanted his life to be. In the writing he stated that his main goal was to leave footprints in the sands of time by leaving a mark in the world as a successful and important person. Congrats!
That is exactly what that Brier Hill kid did. Ralph Rendano will be honored by establishing a yearly scholarship fund for music majors at Youngstown State University.
Ralph leaves behind his partner of 20 years, April, as well as his daughters Brittny and Gianna Rendano, both of Texas; and their mother, Suzie Rendano, of Florida; as well as April’s children, Dana and Curtis Nystrom and grandchildren, Piper Mae and Axelia Lynn who knew Ralph as “Papa Rowalf.”
Ralph was preceded in death by his beloved son, Chaz Rendano; his mother Victoria; father, Ralph; and his brother and partner, brother Victor Rendano.
Final goodbyes will be 10 a.m. Tuesday, Aug. 3, 2021, at the Rossi Brother and Lellio Funeral Home in Boardman, followed by an 11 a.m. service.
