Michael Dowell Obituary

Published by Legacy on Mar. 24, 2022.
Passed away at home Sunday March 20, 2022. Michael was born to Linda Weller and the late Michael Douglas Dowell on December 12, 1976 in Kalamazoo, Michigan. Michael had many hobbies that would take up his time. He loved tinkering with R/C cars, going to the movies, thrift storing, and riding his bicycle. Michael also loved motorcycles. He would rather ride and work on bicycles when he could, but he had a motorized bike for when he couldn't. Michael also enjoyed playing guitar and kayaking to Tortealyas to see the turtles.
Surviving Michael is his mother, Linda Weller; stepdad, Jeff Weller; daughter, Lilianne Cook; sister, Christy Dowell; aunt, Lois Hardenbrook; uncles, Gary Hardenbrook, Alan Hardenbrook, Timothy Hardenbrook; several nieces and nephews. He is also survived by his favorite stepsister-dog, Sammie. Preceding him in passing is his father.
