He is preceded in death by his mother, Ethel Louise Vining Meredith and his father, Owen Reid Meredith. A graduate of Seminole High School, Michael went on to attend Seminole Community College. He began a 21 year career working in various positions at Kennedy Space Center. Finally having to go on disability due to Hodgkin's Lymphoma cancer, he began to wage a 2 1/2 year battle with the disease. During his spare time, Michael loved to go to Walt Disney World. When his illness stopped him from working, he became a volunteer for the Orlando Theatre Project. He was a member of the Markham Woods Presbyterian Church where he sang in the choir. His smile, sunny disposition and laughter will be missed by so many people whose lives he touched. BALDWIN-FAIRCHILD FUNERAL HOME OAKLAWN CHAPEL.
