Previous to re-opening the Hide-A-Way, he worked alongside his father in the family coal business. He was unconditionally devoted to his children and very proud of their accomplishments. Michael was an avid hunter, fisherman, and trapper. He enjoyed spending time at his fishing camp with close friends and his black lab, Collie. Michael was a staunch supporter of the military who loved history, and was a voracious reader. He was faithful to the early morning coffee table at B & S One Stop. Michael was a member of Our Lady of Perpetual Help Catholic Church, Sigma Pi Fraternity, and the WV Golf Course Superintendent’s Association.
