WHALEN, Michael Stephen

Age 44, of Dartmouth, passed away on November 27, 2020 in Halifax. Born in Halifax, he was a son of Patricia (Langille) Hart and David (Valerie) Whalen. Mikey was an entrepreneur who was never afraid to try a new adventure. He was loved by everyone and he loved to help everyone. He was larger than life and had the type of personality that within five minutes of meeting you, he would treat you like family. His three favourite things were his bike, football, (aka Tom Brady), and most importantly his wife, children, family and friends. He was known for saying "I just want to be a small part of something bigger." Mikey is survived by his wife, Amy Marriott; daughters, Madisyn Leah Whalen, Abigail Mikel Whalen and son, Benjamin Michael Whalen, all of Hammonds Plains. He is also survived by sister, Michelle (Stacey) Barnes; brother, Gary (Paula) Whalen; and many nieces and nephews. He was predeceased by his grandparents, Annie (Carpenter) and Donald Langille; brother, Trent Hart; niece, Carys Whalen and his cousin, David White who was like a brother to him.
