Michael was a family man who touched many lives and directly affected the positive trajectory of their future. He was selfless, stubbornly thick headed and generous with all the love he gave. His family was his number one priority making sure they were always taken care of, happy and set up for success. Second to them was his business, Roll Rite Tire. He created a business from the ground up that became a second home with a second family of colleagues. He will be sorely missed but always remembered with a smile, a funny story and a Billy Joel Song.
