Michael BASCETTA Obituary

Mike W. Bascetta, a man of immense character and deep kindness, passed away, leaving behind a legacy of love, generosity, and hard work that will forever live in the hearts of those who knew him. He shared 29 beautiful years with the love of his life, Zandra Evans. Together, they built a life filled with love, laughter, travel and devotion, supporting one another through all of life's joys and challenges.

Mike also embraced the role of stepfather with an open heart, guiding and loving his three stepchildren as if they were his own for nearly three decades. Through them he had seven grandchildren whom he loved very much. His wisdom, patience, and unwavering support shaped their lives in countless ways.

Known for his incredible work ethic, Mike was respected and admired by colleagues and friends alike. His dedication and selflessness were evident in everything he did. Whether helping a friend, supporting his family, or lending a hand to a stranger, Mike gave without hesitation, embodying a spirit of generosity and humility- always believing in others. He lived by the motto, "It is what it is," approaching life's challenges with strength, acceptance, and grace.

Mike's presence will be deeply missed by all who had the privilege to know him, but his memory will live on in the countless lives he touched. His family, friends, and loved ones will forever cherish the lessons he imparted and the love he so freely gave. Rest in peace, Mike. You will always be remembered with love and gratitude.
