Michael went on to Mt. San Antonio JC where he earned a football scholarship to Colorado State University at Fort Collins. Michael worked for many years in management in the trucking industry, later moving on to enjoying 25 years of working for Costco in management. Michael was intelligent, had a keen sense of humor and was genuinely interested in the people who surrounded him. He could be fiercely private, too, and was a true homebody when not working. Michael was an avid reader and sports fan and loved nothing more than relaxing with a good book or a good game and his pipe. He also found great contentment in tending to the outside of his home, mowing the lawn and tending to other gardening needs. Michael was never too busy to lend a listening ear or to offer the soundest of advice when called upon. Michael was quite proud of his Irish heritage.

He is survived by his wife Olga Cookie Quinn, his son Daniel, and daughters Megan, Brenna, Sarah, and Maura, their spouses, numerous grandchildren, his sister Charlene Canchola, two nephews and three stepchildren.
