On Monday, November 7, 2022, Michael (Mike) Allen Brandenburg, loving father and grandfather of three, passed away. He was 77.
Born October 26, 1945 in Dayton, OH to Elwood and Wynn (Bryant), Mike was raised in Brockport, NY. Mike was the second to the youngest of nine children and enlisted in the U.S Marine Corps after graduating from Brockport High School.
After serving his term in the Marines, Mike earned his Associates degree and moved to Kansas City, MO, where he enjoyed a successful career in the food service industry, while raising his son, Marc.
Later in life, Mike and his son relocated to Florida where they owned and operated self storage facilities. This was his favorite job he ever held as having a family business with his son had been his lifelong dream. Mike was most proud of his son and they truly lived their lives for one another.
He died in the care of Hospice, holding his son’s hand until his last breath.
Mike was preceded in death by his mother and father, brothers Richard and Terrence and sister Judith (Russell). He is survived by his son Marc, daughter-in-law Amanda, grandchildren Sam, Sara and Paige, brothers Tom and John and sisters Jean Titus, Jerry Sisson and Diane Laitenberger, along with several nieces and nephews.
A celebration of life will be held at a date and time TBD.
