IRON MOUNTAIN - Gaetano Gennaro "Guy" Ciulini, 97, of Iron Mountain, passed away on Thursday, Feb. 3, 2011 at his home.
He was born on Jan. 17, 1914, in Capestrano, Italy-Abruzzi Region Province of L'Aquila, son of the late Anthony and Bernice (Fontecchio) Ciulini. In 1925, he became a tailor's apprentice, reaching Master Tailor status by 1937. Guy fought in World War II for the Italian Alpine Army in the French/Italian Alps and in the mountains of Albania and Greece.
He married Inez Del Cotto in Capestrano at St. Maria Church on June 9, 1949. Inez gave birth to a son, Anthony, and a daughter, Gabriella in Italy. They moved to the United States in December 1962, and their third child, Frank was born. Guy worked at Colenso's as a tailor for 20 years, and then for Quality Cleaners for the next 15 years. He was a member of St. Mary and St. Joseph Catholic Church.
He is survived by his wife, Inez of Menominee; sons, Anthony Ciulini of Marquette and Frank Ciulini of Kingsford; daughter, Gabriella (Dan) Slater of Kingsford and a granddaughter, Sara Ciulini of Phoenix, Ariz.
He was preceded in death by a brother, Giovanni Ciulini, and sisters, Gildi Rancetelli and Maria Colangelo
Visitation will be Monday, Feb. 14, from 10 a.m. to 11 a.m. at St. Mary and St. Joseph Catholic Church.
The funeral will follow at 11 a.m. at the church. Fr. Greg Venaclase will offer the Mass of Christian Burial.
Burial will be in Iron Mountain Cemetery Park

Fausto Ciulini, one of the bazillion Italians whose parents came to the U.P. to mine. His mother and father Serafino and Louisa DiFiori Ciulini came from Capestrano as did Gaetano Ciulini who is buried in Iron Mt Cemetery. I wondered if you knew any of the relatives of Guy’s who might know if there is a connection between Serafino and Guy’s father Anthony. There can’t be any Ciulinis from Capestrano who weren’t related in some way. Those with the spelling Ciulini were at some point Cellinis. An ancestor in Italy disowned the Cellini bunch so there aren’t too many who spell their name Ciulini.
