Michael Riley Obituary

BELLINGHAM - Michael B. "Mike" Riley, 62, of Bellingham passed away on Thursday, March 23, 2017. He was the beloved husband of Amor Dacallos Riley. Mike was born in the Key West Naval Hospital on September 14, 1954, to William B. Riley of Redwing, MN. and Virginia G. Aulenback of Blackstone, MA. In addition to Mike's wife, he is survived by his two children; William B. Riley of Bellingham and Heather J. Riley of Granby, MA. He leaves his four cherished grandchildren; Kamyrn and Joseph Riley and Magdalena and Natasha Mikrut. He also leaves his brother David Riley and his wife Trudy of Blackstone, MA., his brother Douglas and wife Elizabeth of Framingham, MA., his sister Lynn Riley of Myrtle Beach, SC, and his brother Marc Riley, deceased. He also leaves many nieces and nephews.
A resident of Bellingham and Millis, Mike attended Medway High School. He co-owned Riley's Auto Parts in Uxbridge, MA. The biggest love of his life was his music. He had an amazing talent playing any instrument by ear. His most prized possession was a 1976 Custom Les Paul Guitar.
He was a loving husband, son, father, grandfather, brother, uncle and friend. He will be missed by all.
We will celebrate Mike's life by remembering the wonderful man he was throughout his life and the love and devotion he had for his family, relatives and friends are invited to attend his memorial service April 23, 2017, at 12 noon, being held at the Sportsman Club in Bellingham.

Hi Mike!
Think of you often! Want to thank you for all you did for me and the girls when we lived in Blackstone. I’d never be where I am if it wasn’t for your sage advice and encouragement.
