Michael Dingman Obituary
Mike will always be remembered as the man who loved coffee (never without a mug in hand), muscle cars, 80's hair bands (with the floor to ceiling speakers to listen to them on), playing video & computer games, dogs, giving "dad-advice", and playing ABC mouse and watching movies with his grandkids. His greatest legacy, and the thing that brought him the most joy, was his family and being Dad & Grandpa.
Mike will be greatly missed by his mother, Jeri and father Jim, children Danielle, Martin, Tristan, Amy, Faith, Dylan; grandchildren Kayla, Xavier, Andrew, Greyson, Azrael, Mia, Sophie, Amara, Emeron, Aurelio, Leah; siblings Doran, Steve, Andrew (AJ), and Lori; best friend Lisa; his nephews, nieces, and friends.
Mike was greeted in Heaven by his daughter Nichole and son Andrew.
A celebration of life will be held on Saturday, August 2 at the Big Maple Lake (7302 Ainsworth Rd., Hobart, IN 48342 - Shelter 1) from 12pm - 4pm where we will share memories, pictures, and a meal together.

Michael and I had many conversations about family and friends, God and the little things. I appreciated him as a friend. I knew he cared very deeply for his kids and grandkids. They meant the world to him. He was a good man and would have done anything for his family as God would have wanted. I'm so sorry for your loss.
