Mike was a truck driver for many years and most recently was employed at Bomaco Automotive Warehouse in Fitchburg, MA. He was also employed by IBEW Local 104 for 10 years as well as Roma Pizza in Lowell. Mike, with his gentle and caring personality, made friends with everyone he encountered. Mike always greeted everyone with a smile and kind words. Michael lived in Lowell until moving to Dracut 20 years ago. His siblings, Susan, Bobbie, Larry, Paul, Mary, Mark, Martin, and Marilyn agree on two truths; Mike was the life of the party and he was Mom’s favorite. Mike and his mother shared a close bond that led them to be roommates until Pat’s death in 2020. True to his nurturing nature, he cared for his mother when she was ill and was by her side the whole time. Mike was a jokster. He loved family gatherings and holidays and could always be counted on to provide the laughs. Michael loved a good cigar and to enjoy it surrounded by good company. Like a loyal Bostonian, Mike rooted for the Sox and was a lifelong fan. When he wasn’t working, Mike enjoyed fishing. What Mike enjoyed most was spending time with his family. Gatherings with his siblings, and nieces and nephews was what brought Michael true joy. He loved being an uncle and he was proud to be the Godfather to many of his nieces and nephews. Michael will be missed by so many in his community, by so many co-workers, by his numerous customers, and by his loving family. Michael was one of a kind.
