Michael will be remembered for his integrity, strength, kindness and leadership in all aspects of his life, his community spirit and his unrelenting selflessness. He will also be remembered fondly as "Coach Mike" for his dedicated mentorship in youth softball.

His Celebration of Life will take place on Saturday, February 9th from 1pm-5 pm at Hazelmere Golf

& Tennis Club (18150 8th Avenue, Surrey).

In lieu of flowers the family is requesting donations to the BC. Cancer Foundation or by paying it forward to help a child in need - whether it be funds to participate in a sport or educational activity, or by being a supportive mentor.
