MARIO MICHIELI Obituary
It is with broken hearts that we announce the tragic passing of Mario Michieli surrounded by his loving family on the evening of June 15, 2024 at the age of 62.
Born June 8, 1962, in Fort William to loving parents Ferruccio and Lina Michieli, Mario grew up to be successful at everything he put his mind to. From football, winning the city championship, to hockey, winning the Memorial Cup, to construction and then successful business man. Mario attended both Lakehead University and Confederation College successfully completing a carpentry diploma then going on to own and operate Lormar Construction Inc. Building over 200 homes in Thunder Bay over 35 years and receiving Northern Ontario Builder of year in 1999 was a proud acknowledgement of his hard work and dedication.
Mario was always happy to see you, with a smile on his face. As big as he was, he was a very kind and gentle man. If there was anything he could do to help you he would try. His family was his highest priority, and he was always there for them, especially his two children who he loved with all his heart.
Mario will be lovingly remembered by sadly missed by his children Gabriella (Adam) and Nicholas (Beth) and their mother Lorraine, mother Lina Michieli, sister Marisa Kubinec (Mike, Ethan and Kayla), Julie Michieli (Max, Mackenzie and Molly) Eileen and Chris Kelos (Bianca, David and Jenna, Marco), Lisa and Jim Muccilli, mother-in-law Maria Chies, numerous aunts, uncles, cousins and friends here and in Italy.
Predeceased by his father Ferruccio and his brother John. Father-in law Tony Pigat.
A Funeral Mass to celebrate Mario's life will be held at 11:00 on Friday, June 21, 2024, at St. Anthony's Church, 123 Hilldale Road, Thunder Bay, celebrated by Rev. Luigi Filippini. Visitation for family and friends will be held on Friday at the church from 9:00 am to 11:00 am. Entombment will follow in Our Lady of Charity Mausoleum, St. Andrew's Cemetery.

I have such fond memories of Mario or as I called him the godfather and he called me the godmother. From spending time with him playing pool in the basement on Central Avenue, to being at camp on Lake Superior to just having family Sundays and BBQ's, I have so many amazing memories. Mario always had a big hug and smile for me, spoke such LIFE over me and made me laugh. I am thankful for all the memories I have of Mario, and we are sending prayers of comfort for his children and family. Praying you feel all the love and prayers from Texas. We love you all. Michelle, Aaron, Daniel, David and Dylan Perzan

We are extremely saddened to hear of Mario's passing. Mario's smile, sense of humour, good nature and love of family was immediately noticeable. While we spent only precious hours together both here in Vancouver and in Thunder Bay, memories were created that are never forgotten and often spoken of.
Our heartfelt thoughts and prayers are with you all.
Eugenia, Loris, Dennis Pavan & Families.

My sincere condolences to the Michieli Family. I was a friend of Johns and that was how I met Mario. A gentle soul. Although its difficult today to see beyond the sorrow may looking back in memory help comfort you tomorrow. I can see both John and Mario organizing a card game with all who we lost far to soon. RIP Mario
