Adored brother of Herbert (Norma) Handelsman and the late Faye (the late Oscar) Katz.

Mike proudly served in the Army Air Corp, in the Pacific theater during WWII as a radar operator and mechanic. As a result he became a Ham Radio operator and enjoyed this hobby his entire life. He went to Wayne State University playing in both the marching band and the concert band, and played clarinet in the Novi Concert Band up until his last performance, December 2017.
