Michael died suddenly on March 18, 2017. Michael was truly a gift, an inspiration to all who knew him. We are heartbroken but forever thankful he was with us for almost 61 years. He was a caring, loving man, who built strong relationships both locally and world- wide.
Michael was born in Warrington, Cheshire England on March 27, 1956. He came with his family to Canada in 1975 and has lived in Fort Erie for the last 30 years.
Long supported and loved by his step-father Ron Bryant. Cherished brother and forever missed by his sisters Catheryn Devlin, Margaret Peter and Bernadette Dalingwater. Michael is predeceased by his courageous, loving mother Olive Bryant and his father Michael Feeney. He will be held dear in the hearts of his step sisters and step brother, brothers –in law, aunt, uncle, nieces, nephews, great nieces and great nephews, cousins and all his extended family both here and in England.
He will also be remembered fondly and greatly missed by his friends and support staff from Community Living Fort Erie, his CdLS family world-wide [Cornelia de Lange Syndrome], and those who knew him as part of Gypsy Theatre.
