Michael Piechowiak

Michael “Mike” Piechowiak, 62, passed away at his residence with his family by his side on Monday, April 18, 2016 in Maumee, Ohio. He died of cancer that was diagnosed just over three weeks ago. Mike was born July 16, 1953 to Nicolina Tatti in Buffalo, New York. On September 3, 1977 he married the love of his life and best friend, Stephanie Molineaux. Survivors include his wife Stephanie of 39 years. He leaves behind his 3 sons Jason (wife Angie), Robert and Jacob. He also leaves behind his granddaughter, Avery, whom he loved and cherished more than anything in this world. He was the greatest dad 3 young men could ever ask for. Also surviving are his mother, Nicolina Tatti; brother and sister, Steve and Donna Piechowiak; and nephew, Nicholas Piechowiak. Mike was a lifelong Buffalo Bills fan, and enjoyed taking his sons to Ralph Wilson stadium. Mike was a very active individual who spent a lot of his time exercising, teaching and coaching his sons in multiple sports. He enjoyed playing golf, fishing, and having a beer on the beach with his family and friends. Mike was always a great listener and friend who could light up the room with a good joke and his unique laughter. He’s the type guy who you call whenever you needed a friend. A special thanks to family friends, Jim and Cammie Dorton and Stephanie DeSanzo, we would not have been able to get through this without you. A Celebration of Life service will be held at the Maison-Dardenne-Walker Funeral Home on Saturday, April 23, 2016 at 2:00 PM. The family requests that you do not need to send flowers, but instead please make a donation to the American Cancer Society. Online condolences may be given at www.walkerfuneralhomes.com
