Michael served as a Trooper for the Michigan State Police before graduating from Michigan State University with a Bachelor’s Degree in Mechanical Engineering. He was a dedicated member of the Knights of Columbus.
Michael was a private pilot, an avid fly fisherman and loved spending time on Michigan’s Au Sable River with his Yellow Lab “best friends,” Sunny, Boomer and Bear. He enjoyed flying, riding motorcycles and after retirement, learning to play the guitar. He was a wonderful husband, brother, brother-in-law and uncle and will be remembered most for his genuine smile and friendly exchange.
He was happiest when surrounded by his many friends and family and they will miss him dearly.
