It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of our much loved brother Michael. Mike passed away peacefully, surrounded by his family on November 30th at the too young age of 51 after a short, courageous battle with cancer. Mike was one of a kind. He was a generous spirit, devoted brother, son and uncle. Mike was a talented athlete with an amazing memory, biting wit, love of history, golf and his Michigan Wolverine Football team. He was always ready for a good political debate or road trip adventure. Above all, Mike loved his family. Predeceased by his parents Vince and Reta, he will be cherished forever by his sisters Anne, Patricia, Kathy, Karen and his brother David. He will be dearly missed by his nieces and nephews, especially his kindred spirit nephew Bradley and his special friend Stephanie. A graduate of University of Windsor, Mike was a CPA who worked as a Senior Financial Analyst at DB Schenker. Special thanks to all his colleagues at DB Schenker for their support throughout his treatment. The family would like to extend their deepest gratitude to Dr. Rother and all the doctors and staff at Credit Valley Cancer Centre and Palliative staff, for the excellent care and compassion shown to Mike. A private family service will be held. In lieu of flowers, the family requests donations be made to the Carlo Fidani Regional Cancer Centre.
