Arthur Michael “Mike” Sirrico, beloved husband, father, grandfather, and brother, passed away peacefully surrounded by his loving family on March 19. Born on April 19, 1951, in Plymouth, Mike grew into a man cherished by all who knew him.
After graduating from Salem State with a Bachelor of Science degree, Mike dedicated more than three decades to educating students at the Old Colony Regional Vocational school. Beyond teaching, he was also the owner of Sirrico Business Services, where he worked as a tax accountant and business consultant for over 40 years.
Mike loved life and it was evident through his many passions. He was an athlete through and through. He was a proud co-captain of his high school football team, an avid basketball player well into his mid-40s, and a golfer. As a huge New England Patriots fan, Mike attended countless games with his son, son-in-law, family, and friends, celebrating each victory with the same enthusiasm as his first. Music, sports, and family filled his heart. He loved attending concerts whenever given the chance.
Mike’s favorite times were spent surrounded by his family, especially during his favorite holiday, the Fourth of July. He loved traveling the world with the love of his life, adventuring across the U.S., visiting numerous national parks, and exploring Europe, Australia, and more. He was a member of the Cold Spring Club in Plymouth, where he would spend time with friends. Winters were for skiing trips to New Hampshire, and summers after teaching were spent out at Plymouth Beach and at many golf courses.
Above all, Mike was a family man. His wife was his everything and his grandkids meant the world to him. He leaves behind his loving wife, Susan Smith Sirrico, and his children: Brandon Sirrico and his wife, Jeanelle Sirrico; Nanette Rondeau; and Rebecca McGue and her husband, John McGue. His grandchildren Marco, Enzo, Celeste, Madeline, and Tommy will miss their Plane Jane’s outings and all the fun times had with Grandpa. Mike was a very important figure in all their lives, just as he was in the lives of his siblings, Lee and Jerry Sirrico, and Annette Talbot and Lisa Sirrico, who predeceased him.
Mike lived by the motto “live every day as if it’s the last day of your life because someday, it will be.” His legacy of love, laughter, and unwavering positivity will forever resonate in the hearts of those he touched.
