Mike worked over 30 years at Roadway Express (YRC) as a Dockworker and Switcher.  He spent nearly the last ten years retired, allowing him more time to spend with his grandchildren, family and friends.  He especially enjoyed sharing laughs with Peggy and his brothers at their card parties.  He spent countless hours outside, working on his lawn.  He loved to read and watch the news and could tell you just about anything that was happening anywhere.  Mike rarely missed catching a Cubs game, Bears game or Nascar race on TV.  Mike was an avid stock car racing fan, and the biggest supporter of his son Mike, who he loved to watch race.  He enjoyed traveling and experiencing new things with Peggy.  In fact, his favorite place to be was right next to her.  Mike was loved by many and will be truly missed. In lieu of flowers memorial donations may be made in Mike's name to the St. Jude Children's Hospital.

The family would like to extend special thanks to friends and neighbors Scott and Amy Szelinski, for the help and care provided to Mike over the last several months.
