Michael was born on January 14, 1990, in Kingston, Jamaica, he was truly a unique and vibrant soul. He had a way of brightening every room he entered and left a lasting, positive mark on everyone he met. He leaves behind his beloved son, Zion, who he cherished above all else, and who will miss his father dearly. Our hearts are heavy, esespecially mine (his mom, Patricia), his sister Shan, along with his maternal grandmother Vanette, paternal grandfather Eustace (Carol) uncles, aunts, nieces, cousins, and a wide circle of friends both here and in Jamaica. He had such a generous spirit and a knack for connecting with people.
He was truly passionate about life! Michael had a deep appreciation for Jamaican culinary arts and a profound love for music – those were two things that really lit him up. And professionally, he was a Certified Nursing Assistant, dedicating himself wholeheartedly to caring for the elderly. He had the most gentle touch and a truly compassionate heart when looking after his patients.
