Michael A. “Bacci” Lorusso, 62, of Moody, died Monday morning, August 3, 2020 at his residence following a brave battle with cancer. He was born in Worcester, MA on March 14, 1958, a son of Frank Lorusso, Jr., and Helen (Morgo) Lorusso. Michael moved with his family to Maine at the age of 5, and graduated from Wells High School, Class of 1976. At a young age, he and his brothers worked with their Dad operating the Ogunquit Resort Motel, which the family owned for 52 years. When their dad retired, Bacci and his brothers continued to operate the business in partnership together.
When not working, Bacci was an avid outdoorsman. He enjoyed skiing, riding his motorcycle, surfing, hunting and fishing especially for tuna. Every year he looked forward to his annual trips to Kauai for surfing in Hanalei Bay and to a family friends camp in Rangely, Maine for hunting.
He is predeceased by his father, Frank Lorusso, Jr.
Michael is survived by his daughter, Kacy Crowder and her husband Tyler, his mother, Helen Lorusso, two brothers, Steven Lorusso, Frank Lorusso III and his wife Amy all residents of Ogunquit; his niece, Allivia Lorusso; 3 nephews, Frank Lorusso IV, Joey and Nicholas Lorusso; several cousins; his fiancé, Sandy Theriault; and many, many friends and acquaintances in the Ogunquit area.
