1946 ~ 2014
On Tuesday, November 4, after a valiant battle with mesothelioma, Mike peacefully passed away with Lana by his side.
Mike was predeceased by his parents Jim and Jean Romano, sisters Marie and Phyllis, and by good friend Babe Pachkowsky.
He is survived by his children Chris (Joan), Candace (Vern), Lana (Tom) and his grandchildren Jonathon, Matthew, Lenny and Levi.
He is also survived by his siblings Barbara, Bruce (Joan), Evelyn (Gary) and many nieces and nephews.
Mike was born and raised in Pine Falls, MB. Through the years he lived in many different places, eventually returning home. If you asked him what he did for a living, he could tell you ‘everything’. He believed in working hard and put his heart and soul into everything he did. Mike was thankful for the life he had and all he was able to see and do.
In lieu of flowers, donations to the Children’s Wish Foundation may be made in his memory.
A Come & Go Celebration of Michael’s life will be held at the Papertown Motor Inn, 34 Walleye Lane, Pine Falls, MB between 1:00 – 4:00 p.m. on Sunday, November 23, 2014.

Our thoughts are with you and your family during this difficult time. I know, I have great memories being my neighbor and hunting with your dad and your uncle Bruce for many years. Your dad taught me many things and good memories are very important. You can be proud!
