STAUFFER J. MICHAEL Age 68, of McMurray, peacefully passed away, on Friday, September 18, 2015, at home, with his beloved wife of 45 years, Cheryl (D'Antoni) by his side. Mike, son of the late Oliver G. and Edith L. Stauffer, graduated from Bethel Park High School (1964) and Point Park University (1973). His professional career in consumer and commercial credit lasted 35 years but his true passion occurred post retirement. Mike was an active ESL tutor for Greater Pittsburgh Literacy Council and enthusiastic volunteer for ITxM blood drives and the Dan Berger Cord Blood program. Mike's enthusiasm was infectious whether he was traveling, or enjoying all Pittsburgh sports teams, sunsets and shopping. Being tethered to an oxygen tank due to COPD rarely stopped him until very recently. In addition to his wife, Mike is survived by his Heasley cousins, brothers-in-law, sisters-in-law, nieces, nephews, great-nieces and nephews, godchildren and many friends. Cheryl wishes to thank Allison, Lindae, Chris, Danielle, Pete and all of Catholic Hospice for their excellent care and compassion. Family and friends will be received Thursday 7-9 p.m. and Friday 1-8 p.m. at CREMATION & FUNERAL CARE, 3287 Washington Road, McMurray. A Funeral Mass will be celebrated at 9:30 a.m. Saturday at St. Benedict the Abbot Church. In lieu of flowers, memorial donations may be made to Greater Pittsburgh Literacy Council, 411 7th Avenue, Suite 550, Pittsburgh, PA 15219 or Catholic Hospice Inc., 2605 Nicholson Road, Suite 3240, Sewickley, PA 15143.
