Michael Phillipp Obituary

Obituary published on Legacy.com by Waite Funeral Home Medina on Jun. 21, 2025.
Michael Phillipp passed away suddenly on June 17, 2025. He was born on December 13, 2005, to parents Mark and Stephanie.
Michael was very artistic, creating his own comic books and characters. He wanted nothing more than to be a developer of video games. He attended Willow Farms School in Olmsted Township, where he was learning how to develop life skills to be as independent as possible, and always came home with a smile on his face. He always strived to do his best at everything he attempted, made us laugh on a daily basis, and cared deeply about everybody. Michael loved reading books, listening to music, playing video games, drawing, and going to the zoo to see the wolves, his favorite animal.
He is survived by his father, Mark (Lindsay Mora); brothers, Brayden, Liam, and Hugo; grandparents, Marc and Michelle Dukles, Rob Phillipp, and Don and Joanne Anderson; as well as many loving aunts, uncles, and cousins.
He is preceded in death by his mother, Stephanie, and grandmother, Mary Johnson.
Family will receive friends on Wednesday, June 25, at Waite Funeral Home in Medina from 4-8pm. Services will be held on Thursday, June 26, at 10:30 at St. Francis Xavier Catholic Church in Medina, please meet there.
In lieu of flowers, please consider a donation to either Willow Farms, a place that was bringing out the best in him, or the Medina County District Library, a place that he loved.
