He valued good, hard work and his core group of colleagues who valued the same. He had long time patients whose friendships he treasured.

Michael's varied interests included fly-fishing, bird hunting, reading, cooking, wood-working, and listening to traditional blues music. In his college years he created beautiful paintings and pottery. He was always a teacher and enjoyed sharing his knowledge. He was filled with love and amusement at the antics of his grandchildren. Michael is survived by his wife, two daughters and their spouses, his son, three grandchildren, two sisters and their spouses, niece and nephews. His loving family grieves his sudden and unexpected passing. Tight lines and boundless love Papa.
