Michael lived for his Creator and his family. He was a selfless and tender-hearted man with the ability to solve any problem. He was the pillar of his family. Michael was an accomplished Master Plumber; he used his skills not only to provide for his family, but to help rebuild areas devastated by natural disasters. A joyful and inventive cook, his specialties included macaroni salad and spaghetti. The love and outpouring of support his family has received upon his passing is a testament to Michael’s character and how his kind heart has touched so many.
“A dad is respected because he gives his children leadership. A dad is appreciated because he gives his children care. A dad is valued because he gives his children time. A dad is loved because he gives his children the one thing they treasure most – himself.” (Unknown)
