Michael EliasMICHAEL, Elias "Al" Michael   -  November 5, 1947 – May 17, 2021 

We are saddened by the sudden passing of Al Michael, who died on May 17, 2021, at the age of 74. 

Al is survived by his wife Catherine “Kitty” Michael, his children Tammy (Moe), Carrie (Dave) and Todd (Tamara), and his grandchildren Carlie, Danielle, Jayda and Kya.

He is also survived by his siblings Saida, Norma, Peter, Michael, Mary and Johnny.  He is predeceased by his mother and father, Genevieve and Habeeb, and his brother Joe. 

Al was so very important to so many people, and loved by all.

Known for his helping hands, his wit he brought laughter with, his grit with his vegetable farm, and in his retirement, grew the best peaches in Eastern Ontario.

His life was spent beautifying the world he lived among, with hollyhocks as far as one could see. 

There will be an empty seat at the head of the table, but our hearts will be full with the memories of you there. 

Due to provincial restrictions related to COVID-19, there will be a celebration of Al’s life at a later date. 

As an expression of sympathy, donations to Crohn's and Colitis Canada, www.crohnsandcolitis.ca will be appreciated by our family.
