      Michael Scott Charles Kolpan, loving son, husband, brother, uncle, grandson, and nephew, peacefully passed away on Sunday, April 16, 2023, at the age of 39 as his Heavenly Father awaits for him.

Michael was born on 3/15/1984, to Mitchell and Annette Kolpan in New York. Michael spent his childhood and school age in New Windsor, New York, where he enjoyed playing baseball, football and soccer. Michael was also a graduate of NFA high school in Newburgh, New York.

Michael was a beautiful person inside and out. He could light up a room with his smile. Michael was full of love, and had a beautiful soul. He had an amazing ability to connect with people, he never met a stranger. One of Michael's greatest joy was he was born on the same day as his late beloved grandfather Ben. Michael also loved being a little brother to Nicole, and a big brother to Kyle, Ashley, Joseph, and Robert.

Michael left this earth way too soon and he will be missed, but not forgotten.

Michael is survived by his wife, Abra; stepdaughter, Alyssa Root; his parents Annette and John Istvan, Mitchell and Lezlie Kolpan; grandmother, Pauline Kolpan; his siblings, Nicole and Louis deOlde, Kyle Kolpan, Ashley Kolpan, Joseph Istvan, Robert and Destinee Istvan ; one niece, four nephews; and many loving uncles, aunts and friends.

Michael was preceded in death by his grandparents, Ben Kolpan, Charlie and Mae Sacca.
