It is with deep sadness that we announce the passing of Michael Ferrino, our Maintenance Supervisor at Silver Creek Apartments. Michael was with us for four years, during which time he became an invaluable member of our team and a cherished friend to many.

Michael’s commitment to his work was matched only by the kindness and generosity he extended to everyone around him. His supervisor, Renae, shared these heartfelt words: “Michael Ferrino was not just a Maintenance Supervisor at Silver Creek, he was known to his coworkers and residents as a friend, son, brother, uncle, or father figure. Mike was always helping everyone. His one fault? Never being able to say no or stop working. He will be greatly missed but never forgotten.”

Michael’s unwavering dedication and his warm, helpful nature made a lasting impact on everyone he encountered. His willingness to go above and beyond in his work, and his constant readiness to lend a hand, are qualities that we will always remember and cherish.

As we reflect on Michael’s contributions to Royal American, we extend our deepest sympathies to his family, friends, and all who were fortunate enough to know him. His memory will live on in the many lives he touched, and he will forever hold a special place in our hearts.

We invite our team to share their memories and thoughts in the comments as we honor Michael’s legacy.
