Mike Kliwinski Obituary

Mike Kliwinski, 44, of Charlotte NC, passed away unexpectedly on Saturday, the 10th of December 2016 at his residence. Mike was born on the 22nd of November 1972 in Trenton, New Jersey. At an early age, he started collecting comic books which turned into an avid hobby of his during his adult years. Anyone who knew Mike, knew that Spider-Man was his favorite superhero. In 1997, Mike graduated with his Associates Degree in Specialized Technology with a minor in Computer Engineering Technology from CHI Institute in Southampton, Pennsylvania. He furthered his education by completing his MSCE Certifications in 1999. Mike has worked in the IT field since graduating from CHI Institute. Mike was a diehard San Francisco 49ers fan - win, lose or anything in between, he was always faithful to his team. His goofy antics and contagious sense of humor made everyone gravitate to him and he could always make a person laugh or smile. A service to celebrate the life of Mike Kliwinski will be held at One o’clock in the afternoon, Saturday, the 17th of December 2016 in the Historic Morehead St. Chapel of Ellington Funeral Services. His loved ones will greet friends immediately following the service at the funeral home. Mike is survived by his girlfriend, Missi Long, his beloved boxer Sally and his three children; Riley Marie Kliwinski (12), Aaron Michael Kliwinski (10), and Michael “Mikey” Bryan Kliwinski (3). Notes of stories to share, memories of good times, condolences and love may be shared with his loved ones by visiting www.ellingtonfuneralservices.com . Mike Kliwinski’s service is being served by Ellington Funeral Services, “The Historic Morehead St. Chapel”, 727 E. Morehead St., Charlotte, NC 28202. 704.344.6700. Family owned since 1944.

Many fond memories racing through my mind trying to make sense of Mike's sudden passing. One that will sustain throughout my lifetime is Mike's "Spaghetti Jimmy" celebration after every Flyers goal. RIP

I miss you honey. These past few days have been so hard on me and what once was a life filled with laughter and cheer, is now an empty apartment filled with silence and sorrow. You were my sunlight on a rainy day, my push when I was weak and my helping hand when I needed someone the most. There wasn't a day that went by that we weren't laughing together. And I wouldn't trade anything in the world for the past 2 years that I have spent with you. The memories we have are beyond priceless and people could only dream of having a glimpse of the special relationship we had together. But everything around me reminds me of you and I am trying so hard to stay strong for Riley but it's just not fair that you left so soon. We had so many plans; with us, with the kids, so many trips, your first cruise and so many dreams and aspirations that we never got to do together. I really wish you were still here with me.
Love You Mean It Honey...

Love Missi
