Michael Thomas McGrath

Mike passed away on Saturday Feb 3, 2018 in San Francisco, his native city. Mike was born on July 5, 1964 at St Mary’s Hospital. He was the second son of Cecilia McGrath Turner and the late William Leo McGrath. He is survived by his precious daughter Mary Beth McGrath. His memory will forever be etched in the hearts of his adored siblings, Brother Bill McGrath, his sister in-law the late Diane McGrath, Brother Dr Steven McGrath, his sister in law Dr Amy Burkhart, and his Sister Monica Miller.

He will be missed and fondly remembered by his Sweetheart Jeanine Rosales as well as his nieces and nephews: Grady Miller, Amelie, Finnegan and Miel McGrath. Michael holds a special place in his heart for his deceased Step-Father, Marvin Turner and his devoted son and two adoring daughters along with all of his amazing Aunts, Uncles and many dear Cousins.

Michael was the energetic and loving grandson of the late Sarah and George McGrath and the late Patrick and Celia O’Grady. Michael grew up in Ca and attended schools in Millbrae. His strong love for the City of San Francisco is where he not only lived, but loved the city that introduced him to his wonderful friends. We all know and remember Michael for his honesty, his humor and most of all for his generous heart. He was a man of many talents with a gifted mind. He was a Journeyman Plumber and a proud member of Plumbers Union Local 467. His vigorous passion for art inspired everyone he met. Michael used a lot of his extraordinary artistic abilities to create the most stunning drawings of his dear friends and family. He also did outstanding wood carvings and was highly skilled as a tattoo artist. Besides his awesome creativity, there was nothing that could not be happily fixed by Michael.

May his contagious laugh and smiling eyes be forever with us.
