Michael DiMenna

Michael, a jack of all trades, was born on September 19, 1954 in the Bronx to Silvio and Joan (Ekbom) DiMenna. His earliest passions were baseball, motorcycles, cars, and traveling.

Michael attended Clarkstown North High School (Class of 1972), where he met his high school sweetheart and the love of his life, Mary (Eisenhauer), who he later married in 1977.

After graduating high school, he joined IBEW Local 363, where he remained for nearly 50 years. For the majority of his career, he was a dedicated General Foreman Electrician for Mehl Electric. His work ethic and his actions spoke for themselves.

Family was everything to Michael. He was always planning the next adventure. He loved to travel and spend time with his beloved family, especially his grandchildren.

Michael is survived by his loving wife Mary, his daughter Alissa (Phillip Garbrous) and his son Michael(Dana). He is also survived by his precious grandchildren Ava, Chase, Luke (Garbrous) and Bryce (DiMenna). Lastly, he is survived by his sisters Joanne (Carmen Harlow) and Linda (Frank Alteio).

Michael died surrounded by his loving friends and family after a long battle of complications due to his Leukemia diagnosis. In lieu of flowers, the family suggests that donations be made to the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society.
