Michael Harold Breazile, 71, passed away at home on December 12, 2025, in Spring Lake Park, Minnesota. Born on February 15, 1954, in Auburn, Nebraska, Michael lived a life defined by compassion, generosity, and dedication to his family and those he loved.

His work was not just a career—it was a calling. Through his tireless efforts, he became a beacon of hope for countless people seeking a second chance and a better life.
Michael’s impact extended far beyond his professional life. He was the heart of his family—the one who held everyone together with love, laughter, and unwavering support. Known for his hilarious sense of humor and magnetic personality, he brought joy to every room he entered. Whether riding his motorcycle down open roads or strumming his guitar while creating music that reflected his soul, Michael embraced life with passion and authenticity.
He found joy in simple pleasures: playing music, exploring YouTube for inspiration or entertainment, and always being there to help family members in need. His selflessness knew no bounds—he would give anyone the shirt off his back without hesitation. Courageous and kind-hearted, Michael was truly one of a kind.

Michael will be remembered as a loving father whose unmatched support and kindness shaped the lives of his children. His devotion extended to his role as a grandfather, where his warmth, wisdom, and playful spirit created cherished memories and lasting bonds with his grandchildren. His grandchildren were the light of his life, and he lived for every moment spent with them. Michael’s legacy of love, generosity, and dedication to family will continue to inspire all who knew him.
