Our deepest condolences to all of Mike's family. We were Mike's neighbors for many years. Have many, many fond memories of time spent together and neighborhood shenanigans the "boys" got themselves into. Mike was a very proud father, talented artist and kind man. Rest in peace Mike, you will be missed.

Mike showed an interest in the arts at an early age with watercolor and oil painting, but he found his true calling with Architecture.

He joined Lindsay, Liebig and Roche Architects LLC, where he worked until his retirement. He designed many buildings such as the Coast Guard Academy’s alumni center, the Waterford Country School, and many banks and firehouses in Southeastern Connecticut as well as private residences.
An avid fly fisherman, golfer, photographer, and life-long New York Yankees fan, he also continued to enjoy watercolor and oil painting throughout his life. He could often be found around town visiting his favorite restaurants and socializing with other locals. He will be missed by his family and friends.
