Gary Michael Illi Obituary

With profound sadness, we say goodbye to Gary Michael Illi of Fairburn, Georgia, born in Rome, New York, whose vibrant spirit touched the lives of many. Gary left this world on January 15, 2026 at the age of 70, leaving a void in the lives of so many people. Leave a sympathy message to the family in the guestbook on this memorial page of Gary Michael Illi to show support.

In the sacred silence of farewell, Gary is released into the embrace of eternity, knowing that his light will continue to shine brightly in the tapestry of the lives of his loved ones. And as his memory is carried forward, may comfort be found in the knowledge that love is eternal, and that Gary's spirit lives on in the beauty that surrounds us.

He was predeceased by: his parents, Orlando Joseph Illi and Rose Mary Cofano of Rome. He is survived by: his wife Gloria Illi; his daughters, Latavia and Rachelle Illi; his grandson Gabriel Fowler; and his siblings, Orlando (Brenda), Illi Jr. and Debroah Yousey.

“In loving memory of my cousin Gary, In upstate New York, we spent our childhood together. Our families including Grandma & Grandpa Cofano, our moms & dads & all the cousins gathered for holidays, Sunday dinners, picnics, camping, birthdays, funerals & just "because". Our lives were filled with laughter, noise, food, love and a sense of belonging. So glad you were part of our tribe. There's so any fond memories to hold in our hearts. Gloria, my heart goes out to you & your family. Jean Sacheli”
