Beloved husband of Margaret. Dear father of Michael (Lisa), and Jason (Amanda). Grandfather of Aria and William. Step-father of Ben (Tara) and Katie. Survived by many siblings and their families.
Mike, also known to his friends and family as Mikey, was a happy-go-lucky person whose kind smile could brighten up any room he stepped into.
He shared so much of his love, compassion and affection to his many cats and was a proud papa to his grand dog, Storm.
He was a talented artist that loved to draw, paint and build birdhouses. He loved spending time working on his fishpond and train sets and cheering on his Montreal Canadians.
Retired from the Hamilton-Wentworth Catholic District School Board after over 25 years of service. Always a hard worker, Mike was well respected by all of his peers, colleagues and students.
From when he was a young man picking flowers for his beloved Margaret, Mike always made sure to stop and smell the roses.
Cremation has taken place, and according to his wishes no funeral will be held. Donations, in his memory, may be made to the Alzheimer Society.
Mike will be truly missed by those close to his heart.
