November 28th, 1957 - February 2nd, 2021
It is with profound sadness and disbelief that the family of Kevin Anthony Michella announce his passing on Tuesday, February 2nd at the age of 63.
Kevin will be lovingly remembered and missed by his wife of 3 years, Carol, his sons Danny (and his fiancé Christina), Brian, and Kyle (and his girlfriend Maddie), his brother Ralph (and his wife Karen), and his mother Nancy. Kevin is also survived by his step-children Amanda (and her husband Josh) and Timmy (and his fiancé Casey). Kevin was "Pop Pop" to his precious granddaughter, Thea. His “life is short” mantra and spirit of giving will be remembered and greatly missed by his family, friends, and community, both in Rockland County, New York down to Myrtle Beach, South Carolina.
Kevin was born on November 28th, 1957 in Suffern, New York. He attended North Rockland High School, where he met, and soon-after married, his wife Deirdre Michella, who left this earth in 2012. Kevin furthered his education at Iona College which allowed him to grow his 30+ year career as a Shipping and Receiving Manager at Pfizer Corporation in Pearl River, New York. When not at work, you could find Kevin on the golf course, supporting his boys on the sports field, or enjoying a drink with friends at the Haverstraw Elks Club. Kevin retired from Pfizer in 2016 and headed down to Myrtle Beach to enjoy retirement and relaxation with Carol and their two dogs, Callie and Lucy. Kevin could always be found grilling and mixing drinks for his family and friends, who he frequently hosted at their Carolina Forest home.
Kevin has touched the lives of so many with his generosity and kindness. He always made newfound friends immediately feel like family. Kevin’s unconditional love for his family, extended family, and friends was truly unmatched. He will be greatly missed but always held in the hearts of those left behind. Until we meet again.
Kevin will be waked, and his life will be safely celebrated, at Higgins Funeral Home in Stony Point, New York on Friday, February 12th from 2:00-6:00PM.
