Michael Henry Moore, 56, of Wayland, died Friday, Jan. 27.

The son of Stanley Moore and Barbara (Brynelsen) Johnson, he was born on April 27, 1960, in Kalamazoo. Mike was best known as the family handyman. He could fix anything and made himself available whenever needed. He took pride in his many projects and would give his last dime to anyone in need. Mike also loved watching old TV shows, reminiscing about all of his favorite memories, reading and spending time with family, especially his grandkids.

Surviving are his significant other, Brenda Cook; their four children, Shannon (Warren) Beatty, Tony Moore, Amber Moore, Jessica Moore; brothers, Chris (Megan) Moore of Waterville, OH, Jeff Moore of Alma; ten grandsons; eight granddaughters; along with several nieces, nephews, cousins, and a very special aunt and uncle, Jeannette and Leonard Northrop of Wayland.

A celebration of life will take place at 6 p.m. Friday Feb. 3, at English Hills Terrace, Continental Room, 5179 West River Dr NE, Comstock Park. Please join the family for food and memories.

Honoring his wishes, cremation will take place. Arrangements are entrusted to Michigan Cremation & Funeral Care, Grand Rapids.
