Michael Kaminsky

Michael Kaminsky, 55, of Oak Hill, VA died Saturday, August 5, 2023 after a two-year battle with ALS.
Born September 7, 1967 in Cheverly, MD, he was the only son of Yaroslav and Barbara (Chaimson) Kaminsky of Oak Hill, VA.
"Mike" was a fun-loving, big-hearted guy who was devoted to his family and had hundreds of friends who truly loved him. His sisters looked up to him as a hero and guiding force for the family and were dedicated to his care over the past year.
Mike loved meeting friends at the beach, seeing live concerts, and going snowboarding. There is nothing he wouldn't do for a friend or loved one-from fixing your car and helping you move-to listening to a problem and traveling to visit you.
He was also a talented drummer for several local bands including Mr. Nice Guy, Liquid Therapy, Karma Elektra, Dance Manifesto, Ruckus, and Blackout Brigade. Plus he was a member of St. Nicholas Orthodox Cathedral in DC and held strong faith in the Lord.
Mike was known for being a highly logical and methodical thinker. He graduated from Virginia Tech with degrees in electrical engineering and computer science and worked as a computer scientist with several federal contractors. He approached every problem in work as well as life with passion, focus and intensity.
He is survived by a large, loving family including his parents, sisters Alexandra Babbitt (Thomas) of Virginia Beach, Katherine Kaminsky of Oak Hill, VA, and Natalie Watson (Mark) of Stephens City, VA, along with nephew Christopher Babbitt and nieces, Nicole Babbitt and Marina Watson.
Relatives and friends are welcome to visit between 10:00-11 a.m. Saturday, August 12, 2023 at St. Philip Orthodox Church, 1970 Clearview Rd., Souderton, PA followed by the Funeral Service at 11:00 a.m. Burial will be in the adjacent church cemetery.
Arrangements are by the Huff & Lakjer Funeral Home, Lansdale, PA.
