Michael Dobson Obituary
February 19, 1981 - September 3, 2025
Niagara Falls, NY
With heavy hearts, we share the passing of Michael Adam Dobson, who left us unexpectedly on September 3, 2025, at the age of 44.
Adam was a lifelong lover of books, movies, and sweets-especially anything by Quentin Tarantino. He had a sharp wit, a kind heart, and a deep passion for storytelling. But more than anything, Adam's greatest joy and proudest accomplishment was becoming a father to his beloved children, Paige and Kosmoi.
He is survived by his mother, Robin Dobson, and father, Michael Griggs; his children, Paige Dobson and Kosmoi Dobson; his siblings James Schillinger, Amanda Schillinger, Jessica Lobuglio, Ashley Schillinger, Megan Dobson, and Isabel Hartmann; and many extended family members and friends who will miss him dearly.
Though life brought its share of challenges, Adam's love for his children and family remained steady and strong. He will be remembered for his humor, his loyalty, and the quiet strength he carried through life.
A private family viewing will be held on Sunday, September 7.
