Michael was a beloved son and brother, and a valued friend. He added joy to the lives of those around him, and regularly brought people together to celebrate holidays, birthdays, and life in general. Michael was a creative home chef, an avid gamer, a TV and movie aficionado, and a talented artist. He loved his job at Timbuk Toys, where his enthusiasm and sense of humor were enjoyed by coworkers and customers alike. Michael is sorely missed by everyone in his life.
He is survived by his mother and stepfather, Judith and Michael Irelan of Apache Junction, Arizona; his sisters, Cynthia Fistler of Round Hill, Virginia, and Jennie Cichoracki of Lapeer, Michigan; his grandparents, Donald and Lenora Lewis of White Cloud, Michigan; and his father, Stanley Cichoracki of North Branch, Michigan.
