Michael was raised and went to school in Cheboygan and Petoskey, graduating from Petoskey High School. He loved to play guitar, fishing on the Tribal boats with his brother, Richard, and spending time with his family and his dog, Buddy.

Michael is loved dearly by his family, especially his nieces and nephews.

The family would like to give a special thank you to all the nurses and staff at all of the nursing facilities that Michael resided at and a special thank you to Michael’s friends at Hospice of Michigan in Rogers City.

A memorial service will take place at the Stone Funeral Home & Cremation Services in Indian River on Friday, May 20 at noon with family greeting friends one hour prior.
