Devoted wife, daughter, sister, niece, granddaughter, and friend Alyssa Raybuck (Giannirakis), passed away on Friday, February 2, 2024, after a courageous battle with cancer, surrounded by loved ones who will continue to honor her legacy by living their lives to the fullest.
Alyssa is survived by her loving husband, William Raybuck, her sister Marina Giannirakis (fiancé, Will Singer), her parents Peter Giannirakis and Lynnlee Giannirakis (Ceccone), her wonderful grandparents Katie Giannirakis and David Ceccone, her incredible aunts and uncles, Leah and Angelo Savakis, Maria Giannirakis, and Lori and George Palmieri. Alyssa had an extremely close relationship with all of her cousins including Katie and Dana Savakis, and Anthony and Olivia Palmieri. Alyssa is also survived by her beautiful goddaughter, Sophia Esselburn and will be sadly missed by the Raybuck, Daise, Waid and Hughes families.
Alyssa was a brilliant and passionate development specialist for local Cleveland nonprofits, including the Cleveland Zoological Society, The City Club of Cleveland, and the Greater Cleveland Food Bank. She always strived to use her gifts to make the world a better place. Alyssa received her Bachelor’s degree in Communications and Political Science from John Carroll University, a place she loved dearly and where she made incredible friends. Alyssa loved Greek folk dancing, musicals, movie nights, beating Will at Jeopardy and her springer-doodle, Sally. She was an avid reader, buffalo chicken dip enthusiast and competitive card player.
Donations can be made to the Greater Cleveland Food Bank.
