Michael Wade Forristal

Michael Wade Forristal, 52, a native of Lovington, New Mexico and long time resident of Morgan City, Louisiana, died early Wednesday, August 28, 2024 in Morgan City. Mike was a former Engineer in the oil & gas industry, but was happiest providing automotive repairs to friends and family. He could never walk away from a person having car troubles and was often found underneath the hood of a complete strangers car out of kindness. Especially if the vehicle was a Mopar!

Nephews are James, Brian, William, Trevor and Jonathan and nieces Melissa, Julia, Danielle, Courtnie, Erika and Amberly.
Mike was predeceased by his parents, Lawrence, Sr and Doris Forristal; a brother Robert Forristal, stepdaughter Meghan Stabile and a neice, Heather Forristal.
