Memorial website in the memory of your loved one
This memorial website was created in the memory of my father, Mihai Cuza, who was born in Romania on September 15, 1945 and passed away on January 17, 2006 at the age of 60. He left us unexpectedly, after a short and painful battle with cancer.

This summer, we had decided that he and my mother would come over to visit us in the US and stay with us and our new baby. We had talked about him teaching the boy how to play soccer (my Dad's passion), and how we will get a puppy dog so they can both have a pet to walk. My Dad loved German Shepard dogs so we had decided on that. All the details were set for a beautiful summer and many years to come, but God wanted to take him up there much earlier than we expected.

We were vacationing in Italy last September with my parents and my husband and his Italian father, when my Dad started to feel sick and have back pain. He also didn't feel like eating much. We thought he's just tired from the trip, but when he got back home the pain had become really bad so he went to a doctor. That's when they discovered he had pancreatic cancer in Stage IV, with no possibility of chemo or surgery. He fought for 4 months but in the end this was a battle he could not win.

My Dad was a mathematician and a principal at the High School in my hometown, Gura Humorului, for many years. He had a reputation of being tough but fair, and many students achieved great results after working with him.

He liked to play soccer and tennis, and was an avid mountain climber. He played the harmonica and enjoyed good food, good wine and good friends. He put everyone else first and was renowed for his generosity. He went to church every Sunday and always donated to the Voronet monastery more than anyone had expected.

I know that he is in Heaven with his parents, my beloved grandparents, his brother and the rest of his family. May he rest in peace.

Au trecut trei luni de cand Mihai  s-a dus in LUMEA UMBRELOR, unde s-au adunat prea multi de-ai lui si de-ai nostri. Intre timp mi s-au infruntat in minte cele doua imagini: a celui pe care il stiu de multi ani si a celui ce-si simtea sfarsitul ...  Continue >>

Mi-e greu sa cred ca s-a putut intampla….Nu pot sa cred…! Ati fost omul si nu doar dascalul, care mi-a calauzit pasii in viata, de la care am invatat ce inseamna prietenie, respect, onoare si datorie. M-ati invatat cum sa iubesc muntele, excursiile...  Continue >>
