Mike D'Amico, 78, passed away on November 5, 2022, in Lakeland, Florida. Mike was born on May 23, 1944, in New Castle, PA., the son of the late Leonard and Anna ( Granny) D'Amico. He was a 1962 graduate of Mohawk High School and had a Technical degree from New Castle School of Trades. Mike was a retired Master Mechanic and Maintenance Manager. He was a member of St. Paul the Apostle Church in New Middletown, Ohio.

Mike was very active in various clubs and organizations locally and across the country, which included the New Middletown Area Jaycees, 4-H advisor, Mahoning County Small Animal and Advisory Committees, and Little League Baseball Coach. He was a licensed judge under the American Rabbit Breeders Association from 1989-2017. His passion for judging took him to all 50 states. He was also an active member of the American Satin Breeders, Buckeye Satin Club, and the Penn-Ohio Rabbit Breeders Association. When he was not showing or judging at a rabbit show, you would find him tinkering on his small farm. He proudly refurbished a 1957 Chevy Belair and his father's 1949 John Deere B. He was fiercely loyal to his family, his friends, the Pittsburgh Steelers, and the Cleveland Guardians.

Mike is survived by his wife, Kathleen (Razo) D'Amico, whom he married on November 20, 1965, his children, David D'Amico, and his wife Jenny, Chris D'Amico Ohlin, and her husband Randy Ohlin, grandchildren, Katie, Sarah, Andy, Ethan, Anthony, Kayla and her husband Josh, and Marina, and two great-grandchildren, June and Molly.
