It was the president of the Club, Simone Bassi, who read the motivation: “Lorenzo Tazzari was born in Voltana on 24 September 1957. He passed away on 14 July 2023, at just 65 years old, leaving an unbridgeable void in the Ravenna port system of which he was the voice. A long and prestigious journalistic career, at Resto del Carlino, first in Pesaro then in Forlì and finally in Ravenna after having written for the Gazzetta di Modena, Panorama, l’Espresso, Il Mondo and il Messaggero.
A profound connoisseur of his city, passionate about local economic and political issues, his greatest interest is in the Port of Ravenna and its operators. In February 1995 he contributed to the birth of the Giornale del Porto.
We will never forget the Great Master of Ravenna port journalism who whizzes through the city streets on a bicycle.”
This was followed by speeches by Daniele Rossi, president of the Port System Authority, Andrea Corsini, regional councilor, Eugenio Fusignani, deputy mayor, Giorgio Guberti, president of the Chamber of Commerce, who in various ways remembered their friend Lorenzo with anecdotes and esteem for the relationships maintained in informing on political, economic and especially port issues.
Maria Pia Parisi, president of the Court, representatives of the Port Authority, terminal operators, shipping agents, freight forwarders, port company, technical nautical services and many friends also took part in the event.
