Michael James Craven, 51, of Syracuse, passed away unexpectedly on Sunday, July 25, 2021. Michael was a self-employed Carpenter who could build anything he put his mind to. Michael loved, family, fishing and motor cycles (the louder, the faster, the better!). Michael loved cookouts with his family and friends. He was always up for a good time. Michael could always be found with his dog Niko by his side.

Michael was predeceased by his grandfather, Tadeusz Tyminski and his nephew, Aaron Craven. Michael is survived by his mother, Kristina (Larry), his brothers; Brian, Guy (Meaghan) and Gary; and his sister Grace. He is also survived by his Babci, Cecylia, Uncle Richard and his Aunts, Gail of Alaska and Paula.

Michael had many nieces, nephews and cousins that he loved deeply. He is survived by his ex-wife, Karen, and her children who he loved as his own.
Michael had a heart of gold. If you were lucky enough to be on his good side, you were there forever. He was a protector and guardian to those he cared for and will be missed immensely. Michael was called Uncle Mike, or Dad by many. In honor of Michael please have a drink and remember to always live life to the fullest and tell your family and friends that you love them!

Visitation will be held on Monday August 2, 2021 from 4-7pm at New Comer Cremations & Funerals, 705 N. Main Street, N. Syracuse, 13212, with services at 7pm.
