Michael A. Morianos

1969 - 2020

Michael A. Morianos' life ended peacefully with his family by his side at the age of 51 after a short but tough fight with cancer. Throughout his life, Michael faced obstacles with passion and grit, and his determination did not waiver in the face of his diagnosis. Michael was born on May 6, 1969 to Gale and Tony Morianos and raised in Manchester, CT . He grew up with an adoration of sports, and played both baseball and soccer throughout school, a love that would be passed onto his children. Michael began his career in technology with Price Waterhouse. In 1996 he moved to Atlanta, to fully pursue his career and establish his corporate path. He was most proud of his tenure at Cox Automotive in his role as Infrastructure Architect, where he was well respected by his peers and colleagues. Michael is survived by his three beautiful children: Emerson (12 years old), Tatum (10 years old), and Beckett (10 years old). He devoted his life to their happiness and their pursuits. They were not only his entire world, they were the motivating force behind all that he accomplished. If you knew Michael, you knew he was consumed with providing the very best for his family. In addition to time spent with his children, Michael loved watching Atlanta United and the Red Sox, cookouts with friends, tubing, and road trips to the beach. In addition to his children, Michael is survived by his mother, Gale Morianos, his father, Tony Morianos (Diane), his sister Michelle Hespeler (Karl), his niece and nephew, Krista and Kyle, and his former wife, Karen Hatfield.
