Michael enjoyed all things farm related, including fishing, tractors, bailing hay, and even his overalls. He also loved music, his Jeep and the beach.  Michael liked building things and tearing things apart... and it might get put back together. He loved to talk and was always cracking jokes, he never met a stranger and he would help you any way he could. Most importantly he loved his family and spending time with his kids.
