It is with great sorrow that we announce the passing of Michael "Mike" Delaney, a beloved father, brother,  fiancée and friend, who passed on November 17, 2025. Michael was born on March 9, 1980, and during his time with us, he was a beacon of love, care, and outgoing spirit. His exceptional personality was well known and loved by all who had the pleasure of meeting him. One of Michael's greatest passions was sports, particularly his favorite team, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. His love for sports was only surpassed by his love for his children, his most significant accomplishment. He held immense pride and joy in his four children, Olivia, Jackson, Blake, and Danielle Delaney. Despite his love for recreation, nothing compared to the time spent with his children. These were the moments he treasured most, and those who knew Michael can attest to his unending dedication and love for his family. Michael is survived by his children, Olivia, Jackson, Blake, Danielle Delaney, and his sister Misty Burkett .  His 2 neices Amber Burkett  Ashley Burket and nephew  Dolton Burkett and his loving Fiance Valerie Foster who stood by his side during all of his.  And we most not forget his Best Friend Elliott Smith whos friendship was  a constant reminder of what a true friendship is.  Michael was predeceased by his parents, Bonnie and Dennis Delaney, who we trust will guide him in his next journey. Through his radiant spirit, love, and care, Michael's memory will live on in all who loved him. Let us remember him for the outgoing, loving, and caring man he was. His absence is a void we all feel, but his spirit remains with us. The world was indeed brighter with Michael in it, and he will forever be missed.
