He was a passionate fisherman that loved nothing more than being on a boat with his friends "rippin those lips" as he would say. That is where he found his zen in life. He was a truck driver by profession and always loved a good Peterbilt. Michel was always ready to entertain and show you what good food "really was". Eating out was not an option when he could just make something even better at home. He loved his children so much and left a light in their eyes that will burn on forever. He would do anything in this world to see his babies smile but you better watch out if one of them was hurt in any way. He was a teacher, father, consoler, mentor and friend to so many. He was just "Everything" .When Michel left this world he left a complete void that will be filled one day when we see his smiling face in heaven.
