Michael McCormick, a charismatic soul and a beacon of warmth and hospitality, was born on December 22, 1962, in Mount Holly, NJ, USA. He took his final bow on January 8, 2025, leaving behind an aura of love, laughter, and a legacy of entrepreneurial success. Michael's journey from the bustling streets of New Jersey to the serene landscapes of Dahlonega, Georgia, was an odyssey filled with purpose, passion, and perseverance.
As Thomas Merton once said, "Art enables us to find ourselves and lose ourselves at the same time," and this was truly reflected in Michael's existence. He was not just a business owner; he was an artist in his own right. His canvas was the quaint Bed and Breakfast he owned and operated in Dahlonega for a decade. He had a unique way of transforming a simple stay into an unforgettable experience for his guests, weaving stories of love and life, serving mouthwatering delicacies, and creating an atmosphere of comfort and conviviality. His life was a beautiful composition of cherished moments, bringing joy and creating memories for everyone who had the privilege to meet him.
Michael is survived by his loving daughter, Tera McNeese, and his devoted partner, Tracey Smith. His life was a testament to his powerful belief in the words of Albert Einstein, "Only a life lived for others is a life worthwhile." His spirit continues to shine through the people whose lives he touched and the memories he created. Michael's legacy is one of love, laughter, and a life lived to the fullest.
We invite you to celebrate Michael McCormick's life by sharing your memories and photos on his memorial page. Your stories and photographs are a testament to his life's journey and a beautiful tribute to a man who touched so many hearts.

Mike was a wonderful friend that we have met in the short four years we have lived here. Brian and Mike shared their love of seafood and football many a time. Our thoughts and prayers are with Tracey and the family. What a beautiful woman that Mike had in Tracey. He is with the angels now and we pray for serenity and peace .
Lovingly,
Brian and Deb Towns

Uncle Mike was a warm, funny, delightful human being to be around. His energy was contagious as he was always bringing the light. He was a high frequency being full of love and light. He will be missed!
