Michael graduated Terrebonne HS in 1965. Following attending Nicholls State University in Thibodaux, LA Michael joined the US Navy. Here Michael met another lifelong love, his submarines. Anybody that knew Michael was going to get a class on submarines or Morse Code.

Following his time in the Navy, Michael was finance manager for numerous Car Dealerships in Maine. He loved being apart of making people’s dreams of the right set of wheels come true.

Michael enjoyed life, family, friends and fun, Hakuna Matata. Whether it was enjoying a day on the lake with his wife Anne, a competitive match of tennis, his wise and intuitive talks with his kids, playing LEGOs and doing workshop projects with his grandchildren, Sunday drives in the T-bird with 50s music blasting, or all of the beloved Mardi Gras celebrations Michael relished in the delight of it all.

Michael is predeceased by his parents Earna and Shirley McElroy of Houma, LA, brother Steve McElroy of Houma, LA and grandson Matthew Walker of Farmingdale, ME.
