Michael Elliot Davidoff

Michael Elliot Davidoff, a man who touched our lives as an unconditionally loving husband, father, grandfather, dear friend, weekend warrior and most recently ALS fighter, ambassador, and philanthropist.

He was a true legend. He was diagnosed two and half years ago and his passing will leave a legacy that will be forever etched in our hearts.

Born May 2, 1948, in Houston Texas Michael attended the University of Texas as a business major where he met his loving partner for life, Susan Spiritas. They married the summer after college graduation and move to Dallas to begin their life together.

Michael was fun and passionate – about sports, politics, his family, and friends. He was resourceful, clever, and possessed a unique, unlimited quest for knowledge. For those lucky enough to call him a friend, he had an abundance of love, time, and genuine care for everyone. Although there is a hole in our hearts, it is bursting with love for the incredible person that we will miss.To know him was to love him, and we will hold him in our hearts forever.

Michael is survived by his loving wife Susie and their three children Rachel (Brian) Ladin, Steven (Lauren) Davidoff and Lauren (Bo) Brownstein and grandchildren Brent and Alexandra Ladin, Natalie, Ashley and Haley Davidoff and Brody and Presley Brownstein. Michael has three sisters: Denise Davidoff, Shelley Aroshas, and Marla Davidoff. He is preceded in death by his parents Rose and David Davidoff.

The family would like to thank Ms. Annette Jackson for all of her unwavering tender loving care. We are forever grateful. Also, The ALS Association for all of their knowledge support and all of their incredible friends
