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.
