Obituary for
Michael Edward Tuminaro
MICHAEL (MIKE) TUMINARO, age 29, left this world suddenly for a better place. Mike was a 2004 graduate of Jackson Memorial High School and attended Montclair State University. Mike swam competitively from the young age of 5 up until he was 18 and he enjoyed the camaraderie of his swim teams, as well as being a lifeguard. He wrote poetry and loved music, but most especially took great pleasure in playing his guitars. Mike was an avid video game player, had fun playing paintball, loved hockey, and was a huge Jersey Devils fan.
Mike became an over-the-road trucker for Covenant Transport in Chattanooga, Tennessee, traveling the USA from coast to coast, capturing photos and commenting on the many wonderful sites he found beauty in. Recently, he acquired a job with YRC Freight in Hamilton, NJ, driving big rigs on a more local route.
Mike is survived by his loving family, mom and dad, Donna and Ed Tuminaro; his brother and sister-in-law, Marc and Tina Tuminaro; and his Uncle Philip, Aunt Angie, and cousins Nick and Luke Liuzzi. A private family memorial is planned for July.
Mike will be greatly missed by his family and friends both near and far.
