Michael loved being on the water, and being with his family. He spent much of his time boating during the summers, as well as ice skating and ice fishing with friends throughout the winters. Later in life, he enjoyed spending time in Florida with his wife, Gail. He is survived by his loving wife Gail, sons Kevin, Greg, and Corey, as well as a sister, Mary Mihalec.  Please visit www.warehamvillagefuneralhome.com
