Michael Haddad Obituary

Michael Paul Haddad, Jr.

Passed away suddenly on Feb. 21, 2021 at the age of 67. He was born June 13, 1953 in Canton, Ohio. He was a 1971 graduate of Oakwood High School. Mike was an avid bass guitar player. He taught himself how to play at a young age by listening to jingles on commercials. He was in many bands and his band mates called him Turk. He played in the church band where he attended. He moved from Indianapolis to Arizona in 2016 after he retired from St. Vincent Hospital, where he worked for 25 years in telecommunications.

Mike was preceded in death by his father, Michael and his mother, Esther (Williams); his grandparents, Joseph and Anna Haddad and Louis and Opal Milini and many aunts and uncles. He is survived by his beloved wife, Rosemary; his sister, Annie Williams, (Bob); brother, Rick, (Linda) and sister, Tina Vlahos (Scott); many nieces and nephews and step sons, Adam and Eric.

Mike was very much loved by his family and the many friends who knew him. He will be deeply missed. We celebrate his memory and the time we had with him. His memory will be honored in a private ceremony with family.

I'm deeply sorry Mike and I never hooked back up after our rock band days in the early 70's. He had a beautiful blue, 1971 Nova and was very good on the bass guitar...we had a lot of fun as early day "rockers". Rest in peace my brother. - May God bless and comfort the Haddad Family during and after, this most difficult time - Les M.
