Michael Frances Toth, 74, peacefully entered the holy kingdom on September 18, 2025, surrounded by love. Michael was proceeded in death by his parents, Peter and Catherine, his siblings, Peter and Patricia, and his faithful, one in a million four-legged companion Gabby.

Michael enjoyed all sports, and any and every outdoor activity. From playing baseball, basketball or football, riding a motorcycle, flying a plane, captaining a boat, swinging club or casting a line, he was always active and would gather friends and strangers together for a memorable 'life experience'. The distance between his grands didn't matter, as he would 'bookface' with them constantly, play chess, and listen to music lessons 'over the computer'. He spoke with at least one of them every few days. Michael's military service to our country as a proud Marine gave him the strength to endure the many health issues he had to face over the years.

He was known for his sharp wit and playful persistence, never missing the chance to haggle and negotiate a deal. He could strike up a conversation with anyone, and his ability to make every moment just a little more fun left a mark on everyone's heart. To know him was to love him.

Michael is survived by his longtime partner Sherry, his sisters, Cathy and Beth, his daughter, Jessica (Brian); his grandchildren, Taylor (Kevin), Kory (Nick), Ian, and Owen; his great-grandchildren, Beau and Lindy. The golf gang of guys that will honor him with continued hole in ones, Dave, Dan, Pat, John and too many friends to name.

Semper Fi, Michael, Daddy, Pappy, you are so loved and will be greatly missed, your legacy will live on in the memories, stories, laughter you left on everyone's hearts. In lieu of flowers, please play a round of golf, cast a line, or buy a buddy a drink.
