Michael Jerome Dee
1954-2024

Michael Jerome Dee, beloved father, grandfather, brother, and friend, passed away September 19, 2024, at the age of 70, in his sleep at his home in Homestead, FL.

Born January 24, 1954, to the late James E. and Virginia Ritter Dee. Michael and his family relocated to southern Florida when his children were young.

Michael was known for his kindness, humor, and love for his family. He is survived by his son, Michael Jerome Dee, Jr., daughter-in-law Nicole Dee, daughter Erin Byers, son-in-law John Byers, sisters Barbara Coons-Coder and Katherine McClure, sister-in-law Gale (Edwin) Dee, and his cherished grandchildren: Roman, Blakely, Chase, and Kendall, who brought great joy to his life.

Michael's life was filled with moments of laughter and good times. He spent his time telling stories with friends, fishing, and playing pool. He spent his days doing what he loved, being on the water and conversing with all types of people. He will be deeply missed but forever remembered by all who knew him.

A private celebration of life will be held at a later date.

Memorial contributions may be made in Mike's honor to a charity of the donor's choice.
