Michael Ryan Vigeant, 24, of Hudson, NH, died September 20, 2018 in a train surfing accident. He was born February 17, 1994 in Nashua, NH and was the son of Leonard and Jane (St.Pierre) Vigeant of Hudson, NH. Michael loved life and wanted to inspire people to find their passion. He made friends effortlessly and was energized by people. He was full of joy, loved to make people laugh and found adventure everywhere. Whether he was by the campfire at his families' camp in Maine, traveling across New Zealand or surfing off the coast of Costa Rica, Michael sought every opportunity to be in nature. He thought deeply about opportunities to inspire people and ways to experience God. Mike had a deep connection with animals and found immense joy being curled on the floor with his face buried in a dog. His family was his foundation and being an uncle was the crowning achievement in his life. Michael is survived by his parents Lenny and Jane of Hudson; his sister Julie Dillow, her husband Brian and their children Nathaniel, Autumn and Kaela of Litchfield; his sister Cheri Natalino, her husband Joe and their children Ava and Noah of Hollis; his brother Lenny of New Britian, Conneticut; his sister Laura Liibbe and her husband Zach of Colorado Springs, Colorado; his brother Adam Vigeant and his wife Mollie of Marion, Ohio. He is also survived by aunts, uncles, cousins and countless friends. A service will be held at Gate City Church, 43 Main St, Nashua, NH, on Friday, September 28th at 2:00P.M.

Mike and his contingent sat near my group at Yankee Stadium on 9/19/18, and we were in the same train car at the time he passed. I never met Mike, but he has been in my thoughts constantly for the past week. Having read the accounts of his vibrant life, it's clear that Mike left his mark and will be missed greatly. Condolences to his family and friends.

Incredible sadness and disbelief to have lost such a winsome soul so soon. He was such a sweet and full of life youngster with a twinkle in his eye. What a blessing that Mike was a believer so that all of us who believe in Jesus will see him again. Prayers and hugs for all the family that will miss him every day until that reunion. Life is short. And so precious. Nothing more so than our children. May you feel God's comfort and His peace while remembering Michael always with love and joy. Sylvia Horsley and family

When I first entered as a freshman at a brand new high school, I knew no one except my twin brother. I was very short, had a high pitched voice, and was terrified even though I tried to put on a smile and make friends. Mike was two years ahead of me and befriended me almost immediately. I'll never know why. He was passionate and bold, and I thought he was really cool. But what meant much more was when he asked me how things were going a few weeks in. When I fake smiled and told him that it was going okay, he didn't buy it. Although he never pushed me further and tried to figure out why I was struggling (and lying about it), he somehow seemed to know anyways. He told me "If anyone in this school picks on you, let me know. I've got your back man." That meant so much to me, and I became a little more confident. He had nothing to gain by reaching out to an awkward freshman like myself, but he continued to encourage and watch out for me for that one short year I knew him. I wish it was longer. I love you, bro. Thank you for watching out for me. Rest in peace.

I'm very sorry to learn of Michael's passing. My thoughts and prayers are with the entirety of his family and friends. I didn't know Michael, but I knew his younger siblings Laura and Adam. I can only assume that Michael's character was as lovely as theirs. May God's love comfort you in this horribly difficult time. May you find strength in your shared faith and in your shared love of Michael. My most sincere condolences.

Michael worked for us this past spring and summer, he was a happy fun guy that I loved having in my restaurant. My customers loved him and he will be missed. He had a great take on life for one so young. He spoke of his family every day and missed them when he was here. To his family, know that you all were in his thoughts every day. He spoke to me about you all and he told me his dad was an inspiration to him.

Mikey V loved life he had a heart of gold. He found a way to enjoy each day. Family was important to him he spoke highly of his family. When he smiled it lite up the room. He was unable to walk past a dog unless he befriended it first. My two dogs thought he was one them he had to wrestle and play with them. I joked with him and call him the dog whisperer. My condolences and sincere regrets to the family over your loss. He will be missed be all❤
