Beloved husband of Carol Shemo for 58 wonderful years. Loving father of Cindy (Don) Kimbro and Dena (Frank) Jannaro. Cherished grandfather of Corey Atkin, Sophia Jannaro and Natalie Jannaro. Dear brother of Steve Shemo and Barbara Shemo. Dearest uncle of Sandy (Patrick) Whiting.
Mike was born and raised in Glen Campbell, Pennsylvania. He moved to Detroit, Michigan shortly after high school graduation where he worked as a gas station attendant and he met his future wife, Carol. Mike went on to work for 32 years at Detroit Diesel as a Diesel Engine Quality Inspector. In his early years he enjoyed hunting and fishing with his friends in Canada. In his later years Mike enjoyed playing cards, Indy Car racing, bowling, rooting for the Detroit Tigers and he loved his Polka music. He was a simple, quiet man who loved his family, and we will miss him tremendously.
