Born on March 26, 1982, Michael was a wonderful son and a devoted brother and uncle. He earned his degree in Chemical Engineering from the University of Florida, launching a distinguished career that began with supporting the space shuttle program. He later brought his expertise to The Boeing Company, where he contributed to the development of the 787 aircraft.
Michael was known for his steady presence and kind spirit. Whether offering wise advice, lending a helping hand, or simply listening, his unwavering support was a source of comfort to all who knew him. He leaves behind a lasting impact through his generosity, humility, and quiet strength.
He is survived by his father, William Zelinsky, and his sister, Sally Austin. He also leaves behind a loving extended family, including his aunt, uncle, stepmother, nieces, nephew, cousins, and countless friends who will deeply miss him.
