He was preceded in death by parents Jack Seuss and Patricia Wendt and brothers Christopher, Nicholas, and Don Wendt.

Michael and Barbara raised their children on a farm in Barry County. Michael was a scholar and an educator, an athlete, a gentleman, a born naturalist, an accomplished craftsman, and a loving husband, father, grandfather, and great-grandfather. His loss is acute, but his family has been grateful for the many of his friends, and theirs, who have offered their love and support.

All who knew Michael are welcome to remember his life on Sunday, February 25th from 1 to 5 PM at the home of Jason Seuss and Melissa Morgan: 1818 Woodruff Road, Hastings, Michigan. We will raise a toast in his memory at 2:30 PM.
