Michael Eric Sachs

Michael “Mike” Eric Sachs of Carmel, Indiana went home to be with his Lord on February 1st, 2026 at the age of 64. He valiantly fought stage 4 cancer for almost 9 years and was an inspiration to many with his strong will to live and admirable positive attitude during the many years of treatments. He always made sure to encourage other cancer patients along the way.

Mike was born in Detroit, MI on November 25th,1961. He is survived by his parents Marvin Sachs and Marilyn Arlin Bischoff. He lived in several states but his family settled in Indiana and he graduated from North Central High School in 1980. Mike earned a Bachelor's degree from Indiana University in Accounting and Business Management and then went on to earn an MBA from Indiana University in the Honors Program.

He began his career at KPMG Pete Marwick as a Staff Auditor but after a couple of years there, was driven by his entrepreneurial spirit to become involved in the floor restoration business as well as the complementary business of janitorial supply in 1988/89. Mike co-owned Midwest Floor Restore (Indy Floor Restore) and Spectrum Janitorial Supply and grew these businesses greatly both geographically and financially. After a long successful career as President, Principle and owner in these industries, Mike retired in 2024.

Mike’s greatest joy was his family. He married his bride Linda (Giczewski) on April 26th, 2003. Mike was the proud and loving father of Natalie (Addie) Sachs, Gabe (Hannah) Sachs, Ben and Eric Sachs. Gabe and Hannah gave him his first grandchild, Liam in March 2023. Mike will also be dearly missed by brothers Mark (Susan) Sachs and Jeff Neben, numerous nieces and nephews, and his mother in law, Mary Giczewski. Mike is preceded in death by his father in law, Robert Giczewski and niece, Stephanie Sachs.

Mike loved to spend time with family and friends, and with them enjoyed his favorite hobbies such as golf, fishing, coin collecting, attending music concerts and traveling. Mike was also a knowledgeable history buff. Some of his favorite memories included time with family and friends at his Fort Myers Beach vacation home.
