Michael Joseph Honingford, age 71, of Temperance, MI, died Friday, November 8, 2024 with his loving wife, son, and daughter by his side.
Mike was born on July 25, 1953 in Lima, OH to Harold and Doris (McNally) Honingford and was the brother to John. He was a graduate of BGSU and worked as a member of Local 50 Plumbers and Pipefitters. Mike loved caring for nature, wildlife and pets and taught us all to appreciate them. He tirelessly planted and nurtured acres of trees to create a beautiful setting for our home. He enjoyed and was skilled at designing and building to bring to life his many projects.
Most of all, he enjoyed sharing what he loved with his wife of 48 years, Rebecca (Rozzo); son, Benjamin; daughter, Megan, and many friends and family who will miss him dearly.
A private gathering will be held at a later date. Funeral arrangements entrusted to the Urbanski's Bedford Funeral Chapel 8300 Lewis Ave Temperance, MI. Online condolences may be shared at www.bedfordfuneralchapel.com.
