A resident of the LA Veteran's Home in Jackson, LA, for the past 2+ years and long-time resident of Baton Rouge, Mike passed away on June 5, 2018, at OLOL. He worked at Ethel Corporation "back in the day," and retired from the Louisiana Department of Revenue. He was an avid bowler with his wife, Anita, joke and story teller, and just a very thoughtful and caring human being, choosing to always put others first. As a Navy veteran, he will be buried with military honors on Tuesday, July 31st, at 11:00am at the Port Hudson National Cemetery. He is survived by a son, Michael; and nieces and nephews including Shannon and Brian Maiocchi, Jerry & Kelli Jones Jr. and Darian & Laura Jones. He is preceded in death by his wife Anita, parents, sister Ina and brother Woody. A special thank you to Milton and staff at Ourso Funeral Home in Gonzales, for the arrangements.
