Michael James Urbanski

Mr. Michael James Urbanski was born July 30, 1953 in San Antonio, to parents Edward James Urbanski and Leta Joyce (McElroy) Shaffer and entered into rest November 19, 2019 in Athens, Texas at the age of 66.

"Mikie-Do" as his sister Vicki called him, graduated from Justin F. Kimball High School, Oak Cliff, Dallas, Texas in 1971. He started the first of three careers at Van Gurp Air Conditioning installing AC units in residential homes and businesses. Mike then worked for the Dallas Times Herald Newspaper in the printing press department. His third career was a truck driver for Clayton Mobile Homes. Mike was the kind of guy that loved everyone he met. He enjoyed fishing at Cedar Creek Lake and playing his games on the internet. He also loved his dog Tinker and going on trail rides with Uncle Bill Fox.

A beautiful life that came to an end, he died as he lived, everyone's friend. In our hearts, a memory will always be kept of one we loved, and will never forget.

Mike will be dearly missed by all who knew him-especially his friends at the R.V. park where he lived.
