Michael John Srnec found his peace with his family at his side on Wednesday, April 3rd, 2024, age 63. Beloved husband and best friend of Jill (Hynek) Srnec for 31 years. Loving dad of Mitchell (Morgan) Srnec and Jenna Srnec. Grandpa and guardian angel of Adeline Grace Srnec and Tater Tot. Preceded in death by James Srnec, Barbara Meiling and Gary Hynek. Further loved by many other relatives and friends.

His family was his greatest joy. They gave him strength during the rough times and laughter and joy all the time. He was so proud of his kids, and they will hold dear the stories they will be privileged to tell of their charismatic, loving father.

Mike graduated as valedictorian from Cudahy High School in 1978. He went on to earn a Bachelor of Business Administration degree from the University of Wisconsin Whitewater. He worked for Air Wisconsin before his 32-year career at Avis Budget Group. In those 32 years, he gained the respect and friendship of coworkers and many in the industry. He was always willing to jump in and help with his knowledge and a smile. He also owned a few businesses along the way. Mike loved reading, sudoku puzzles, playing golf and watching his favorite Wisconsin sports teams. He was happiest spending his time with family and close friends. Many wonderful memories were made traveling with family and friends.

“May the wings of heaven blow softly and whisper in your ear how much we love and miss you and wish you were here.”

Thank you to the staff at Froedtert Hospital and Zilber Hospice. We are so grateful for the care and compassion we were shown on this journey.

In lieu of flowers, we ask you to donate to the American Cancer Society in Mike’s name.
