on Tuesday, January 15th. He was born on September 20, 1959, to a French - Canadian
family in Lawrence Massachusetts. He was the second youngest of six children.
Michael worked most of his 59 years in the field of Security. He started as an entry level

had and managed are a testament to his love for his family and determination to give
them the best life possible. The selflessness shown in his life cannot be met but is
aspired towards and immensely respected.
