On 29th December 2025, we lost our beloved dad, Rocco Iannantuono, suddenly and far too soon.

Dad had been living with vasculitis – Granulomatosis with Polyangiitis (GPA) – since 2022. It’s a rare and often misunderstood autoimmune disease that can affect multiple organs and turn life upside down in an instant. Despite everything he faced, Dad showed strength, resilience and courage every single day.

GPA is a condition many people have never heard of until it touches their own lives. That’s why we want to do something positive in Dad’s memory — to help raise awareness of this rare disease in the UK and to support others who are living with it. No family should feel alone when facing something so serious and so little known.

We miss him every single day. The loss we feel is immeasurable, but knowing that we can make a difference in his name brings us comfort and purpose. If raising funds and awareness helps even one person get diagnosed sooner, access better support, or feel less alone, then that means everything to us.

Dad meant the world to us — a loving father, family man, and someone who would always put others first. This is our way of honouring him and keeping his memory alive.

Thank you so much for your support, whether that’s through a donation or simply by sharing this page and helping spread awareness of vasculitis GPA.

Forever loved. Forever missed. 💛💛💛
