Mike was employed as the maintenance manager for Total Transportation/MAT Bus Corporation in Philadelphia for the last 10 years. Mike was very dedicated to his job and loved what he did. He was a friend to many there.
Mike was a man who was liked by all who meet him. He had a heart of gold and was always there to help you out. He especially loved to spend time with his nephews Nicholas and Dominic and his niece Elena. He loved spending the weekends at Aunt Diane and Uncle Franks pool with the kids and sitting on the beach in Sea Isle City. As a husband, he went beyond the title. The love he gave showed in everything he did. He loved to watch Sunday football and NASCAR with our dog Lola next to him. The world lost an amazing, loving, and caring man but heaven gained a beautiful angel. He may be gone but he will never be forgotten. He will be missed dearly by so many.
Mike was a member of Asbury United Methodist Church in Cinnaminson.
A celebration of life will be held at a future date.
