Michael Alan Klocek (to his friends he went by Snoop), age 67, passed away unexpectedly at UK HealthCare in Lexington, KY on December 9, 2023. Born in Manchester, NH on May 19, 1956, he was a son of the late Stanley and Claire (Rivet) Klocek.
Michael was an avid Nascar fan, Jamie McMurray was his guy on the track. He enjoyed hunting, fishing, and pretty much everything that had to do with the outdoors. He enjoyed spending time with friends, family, and was always ready for some laughs. In his younger years he was more active, but in his later years became unable to get around due to health issues, caused by severe rheumatoid arthritis. Mike was a fun-loving spirit, never really able to adjust to what we would consider a normal life but he enjoyed his life to the fullest the best way he knew how.
He was predeceased by his mother, Claire (Rivet) Klocek and his father, Stanley Klocek; his older brother, Daniel Klocek and his younger brother, James Klocek; as well as his sister-in-law, Judy Maxner Klocek.
Mike leaves behind his remaining family, including his daughter, Jamie Kearley and her fiancé BJ of Pembroke, NH; his granddaughter Ellie and step grandson Brady; his first and only love, Courtney (Kearley) Stock; his older sister, Jeanne Turck and her husband Michael of Milpitas, CA; his younger sister, Judith White and her husband Paul of Candia, NH; his nieces and nephews including Kathy and Jon Klocek of Richmond, VA, Aaron Klocek of Perry, FL, Emily White of Manchester, NH and James White of Candia, NH; his grand nieces and nephews, Weston Ross and Coleton Ledoux; as well as several aunts, uncles and many cousins and friends.
From all we pray that Mike rests in peace in God’s love and mercy.
Services will be held at a later date.
