On Sunday August 15, 2021, Michael age 61 of North Versailles passed away. Son of the late James “Hank” and Mary (Connelly) Holland. Beloved husband of Anita (LaGorga) Holland. Loving Father of Ryan Holland and Coryann Holland. Dear brother of Rev. James Holland and Linda (James) Bazzone. Brother-in-law of Anthony LaGorga, John (Beverly) LaGorga, and the late Joseph D. LaGorga. Uncle of Dominic, Jason, Victor, and Jeremy. Special friends that are like family, Chuck and Nancy Lukondi, Allison and Lacey Lukondi, and his favorite volleyball/basketball player Chloe Lukondi. Mike worked for Equitable and People Gas for 43 years. He was a lifelong member of St Robert Bellarmine Church Mary Mother of God Parish. He was a valued friend by many. Not many can say their best friends with the same guys that they hung out with in High School, Mike could say that. Mike loved listening to music and sports, baseball being his favorite. Although he loved the Pirates, Ryan, Mike, and the boys would take in a little league game any day. He was so supportive of Anita, Ryan, and Cory in all their activities. He never wanted to be in the spotlight but none of us would have shined without him. Mike loved to trash talk, be it Spades, Cornhole, Monopoly, playing or not, he always had a sarcastic comment for those playing. Friday night dinner and game nights were his favorite.

My deepest sympathies to Anita and the kids over the passing of Mike. We were friends in high school and still today. Mike was truly one of a kind.

So very sorry to hear of Mike’s passing. Sending all of you our deepest sympathy, prayers & comforting thoughts.
I wish to express my sincerest condolences to the friends and family of Mike. God cares about your grief and tears. One Bible writer said to God: “Do collect my tears in your skin bottle. Are they not recorded in your book?” – Psalm 56:8
Remember, while the void you feel in your heart may not disappear, with God’s tender help, you can cherish you memories of ****** and you can still enjoy warm friendships and a purposeful life. And soon God will eliminate death. He wants you to be able to embrace your loved one again. Then that pain in your heart will be healed forever. The scriptures provided me and my family comfort by helping us see Gods loving plan for those who enter rest. For comfort from the Bible please visit bit.ly/Deathjworg
