Michael Brickley Obituary

Brickley, Michael J. Michael John Brickley, 61, of Sturgeon Bay, passed away January 15, 2015. A graduate of UW-Milwaukee with a degree in Journalism and UW-Madison Law School, he worked as a lawyer and legal editor for West Publishing. He was also the co-founder of Cityside, a Milwaukee newspaper. Michael had a love for nature and all of its critters, but most of all, for his family and friends. Michael's humor that was both goofy and wry, his intelligence and his kindness will be deeply missed by his sister, Kate Brickley of Petaluma, CA; niece, Lily (Josh Hayes) Oglesby of Reading, PA; other relatives; and dear friends. Family and friends may gather in celebration of his life from 11:00 AM until 2:00 PM, with a service of remembrance beginning at 12:00 noon, Monday, June 29, 2015, at the Collins Learning Center at Crossroads at Big Creek in Sturgeon Bay.

Kate. I remember your brother from SB high school days. He struck me as a bright, witty kid. Sounds like he carried those traits throughout his shortened life. My condolences.
