Michael Anthony Cinquemano

Michael Anthony Cinquemano, Jr. age 27, passed away on Saturday, September 13, 2014 in Young Harris, Georgia.

Michael was born on March 23, 1987 in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, a son of Michael & Ilka Cinquemano. Michael loved life and found a friend in everyone he met. He didn't pick favorites and considered all of his friends to be his "best friends". His contagious laughter and smile brightened the room and put everyone at ease. Michael was a hard worker and did his best to care for his family. Often, he was the "go-to" man for a helping hand or advice in making decisions. He enjoyed dirt track racing and being on the lake, but most of all keeping it simple, just hanging out with those he loved most: his family and friends.

He will be warmly remembered by all who knew him, but especially missed by his loving family: father & step-mother, Michael & Chassidy Cinquemano of Tampa, Florida; mother, Ilka Cinquemano of Hiawassee, Georgia; sisters, Kaitlyn Marie & Kara Rene Cinquemano; brother, Elijah Blake Collins; paternal grandparents, Victor & Shirley Cinquemano; maternal grandparents, Jean & John Shryack; uncles, Tommy Fischer and J.R. Cinquemano; nephew, Waylon Michael Cinquemano and great uncle, John Neil.

A Celebration of Michael's Life for family & friends will be held at 2:00 p.m. on Saturday, September 20, 2014 at 330 Berrong St. in Hiawassee, Georgia.

Arrangements entrusted to the care of Cochran Funeral Home of Hiawassee. Please share your condolences with Michael's family on our website, www.cochranfuneralhomes.com.
