HON. TIM RYAN

in the house of representatives
Thursday, December 16, 2021
Mr. RYAN. Madam Speaker, I rise to honor and pay tribute to Salvatore J. Ponzio III, 36, of Girard, who passed away peacefully on Sunday, December 12, 2021, at his home.
Sal was born August 8, 1985, in Youngstown, Ohio, the son of Salvatore J. and Judy (Demas) Ponzio.
Sal was a 2004 graduate of Girard High School, a graduate of Youngstown State University with his bachelor's degree, and a graduate of Kent State University with his MBA.
Sal had worked for Ernst & Young in Cleveland for six years and had previously lived in Rocky River, Ohio. He was a member of St. Rose Church.
Sal loved all kinds of sports, especially golf. He was a personal trainer and had even volunteered for coaching this year for the Girard High School football team. Sal was the author of ``F.I.T. Finance,'' a book which he wrote to help young adults manage their finances.
He leaves to cherish his memory, his parents; grandmother, Regina Demas; brother, Joe (Lucille) Ponzio of Lake Wylie, South Carolina; sister, Gina (Dave) Sherock of Columbus; nephew, Dominic Ponzio; nieces, Lucia and Viviana Ponzio and Carmella Sherock and his loving girlfriend, Alessandra LaMonica. He also leaves aunts, uncles, cousins, and many wonderful friends.
The Girard community is devastated by the loss of this amazing young man. We will all work to make sure he is never forgotten because he set a standard of kindness and compassion for which we all need to strive. God Bless Sal. He left our world a lot better than he found it.
