Michael Millman Obituary

Michael Larry Millman of Northbrook, IL passed away suddenly on August 1 while visiting with family in one of his favorite places, Gloucester, MA. Born in Chicago, first son of Myrna and the late Morrie, Michael attended Niles North HS and University of Illinois. He received his Master's in Industrial Relations from Loyola University Chicago. Married to the love of his life for 44 years, Debbie Millman, nee Bumagin, he was the kindest and most supportive father to Josh (Megan) and Liz (Hunter) Hardin. He was the best Papa to Sam, Caroline, and Alice Millman who will miss him every day. He was the pied piper to many nieces and nephews, with unmatched patience and playfulness. He was an organized and dedicated employee focusing on transportation logistics for Weber Flavors, having started his career at Fel-Pro. An avid fisherman and cyclist, Michael loved the water and the outdoors, although he could often be found working out at the gym. He is also survived by his mother Myrna, brother David and sister Laura, along with nephew Matthew Millman, and mother-in-law Victoria Bumagin. He will be missed by his many cousins, in-laws, and close friends. Service Wednesday 12 Noon at Shalom Memorial Park Cemetery, 1700 West Rand Road, Arlington Heights.
