Mike was a remarkable husband, dad, “Pop”, “Papa”, godfather, uncle and dear friend who’s passing leaves a giant hole in the lives of many. He loved spending time with those he loved, stoking a nice campfire, and playing bass as if he were the newest member of Judas Priest.
In the days leading up to Mike’s passing he repeatedly shared how fantastic each day had been and how he was having the best of times while vacationing with family. It is a comfort to know that while we solemnly mourn over his tragic passing he spent his days enjoying every moment until it was his last.
Family and friends are invited to gather on Sunday, September 9 th , 2018 at the American Legion, 76 W. Main St., Macedon, NY 14502, at 3:00-7:00pm for a celebration of Mike’s life, with a time to share memories at 5:00pm.
