Obituary of Michael J McCormick

Michael (Mickey) J. McCormick, 67, of Washington, NJ passed away suddenly on June 18, 2017 at his home.

Mickey was born on August 10, 1949 in Glen Gardner, NJ to the late Earl and Frances McCormick.

Mickey graduated from North Hunterdon High School, class of 1967. Mickey proudly served his country in the United States Navy as a Signalman during the Vietnam War era. After leaving the military, he started his own hardwood flooring company in 1973, later proudly partnering with his son in the business, Michael J. McCormick & Son. He was extremely talented at his craft and sought after by many for their hardwood flooring needs. Over the years Mickey enjoyed coaching and watching his sons play sports, and going on fishing trips with his friends and family in Canada. Mickey was an avid fan of the New York Giants and of Villanova Basketball. Mickey took great pride in maintaining his home, and treasured the times spent there with family. Mickey was never without a story to share. Above all he was a family man; a devoted husband, loving father, and proud "Pop-Pop."

He is survived by two loving sons, Ryan McCormick, his wife Marissa and their son Quinn Kelly; Colin McCormick, his wife Colleen, and their son Jameson Michael; three caring brothers, Martin and his wife Frances; James and his wife Peggy; and Daniel and his wife Kim; two loving sisters: Kathleen McCormick; and Margaret Andrews and her husband Thomas.

In addition to his parents, Michael was preceded in death by his devoted wife of 42 years, Jeanne (Ruszczyk) McCormick, who passed in 2015. He will be sadly missed by all who knew him.
