Michael LaShute Obituary

Michael Craig LaShute Jr. was called back to heaven on May 31st, 2018, at the tender age of 32. Michael joined his father Michael LaShute Sr., his grandparents Samuel J. LaShute and Marilyn Brocato, his maternal grandfather Ronald Wirth Sr., and his aunt Julie Wirth-Porche. Michael is survived by his loving mother Christy Wirth, his cherished daughter Destiny LaShute, his maternal grandmother Doris Wirth, and his step-grandfather Salvadore Brocato. Michael also leaves behind many aunts, uncles, cousins, nephews, and friends. Mike was a lifetime resident of Metairie and he will be sorely missed by all. There will be a private celebration of his life at a later date.

Christy I'am so saddened to hear about the passing of Michael. My heart breaks for you and his little girl. I remember Michael as a fun loving lil boy. I have no words to comfort you. I can't tell you it will get better because the truth is it doesn't . He is at peace now. I will keep you and your family in my prayers. Edley Ramagoz
