Michael's obituary
It is with profound sorrow that we announce the passing of Michael Menard, a person of immense kindness and warmth, on October 19, 2025. Born on October 7, 1989, Michael's light shone brightly in the world for 36 years, touching all those he encountered with his well-natured spirit. His joie de vivre was infectious, his generosity unparalleled, and his wisdom beyond his years.
Michael was a food connoisseur with a particular fondness for steak and potatoes. He was an ardent fan of the Harry Potter series, occasionally likening the adventures of his life to the chapters in those books. Music, particularly the works of Ben Quelled, inspired him deeply. As an avid gamer, he would often relax with his PlayStation, diving into different worlds with a childlike enthusiasm.
Not only was he fond of watching Jack White's performances, but Michael also expressed his passion for music by playing the guitar. Sporting a free spirit, he loved riding bikes and BMX, embracing speed and the feeling of exhilaration that came with it. He was an active advocate for cat welfare, his empathy toward feline companions being one of his many admirable traits.
His mantra, "Treat others how you want to be treated," is a testament to his noble personality. Michael was a beacon of kindness in a world that so desperately needed it. His departure has left us heartbroken, but his legacy of love, respect, and humility will continue to guide us.
In honor of Michael's life and his unwavering dedication to making a difference, a fund named 'Michael's Life' has been established. Those wishing to carry on his legacy are encouraged to contribute at https://everloved.com/life-of….
Despite departing this world far too soon, Michael lived a full and vibrant life. His memory will forever be etched in our hearts. While we mourn the loss of a wonderful man, we also celebrate the life of a great and decent human being. Rest in peace, Michael. You will be sorely missed.
