Michael T. Bergeron
BATH – Michael T. Bergeron, 49, of Bath, Maine passed away peacefully in his home on Monday morning, July 12, 2021.
Michael was born in Lewiston on Sept. 1, 1971 to Claire and Thomas Bergeron. He is remembered for his dare devil lifestyle, fun-loving attitude, his talent as a tattoo artist (aka Tattoo Mike), and a key guitarist in his band.
Mike was a loving father to his daughter Haley Bergeron, his son Gage Ritenour, and his stepchildren Olivia, Ashley, and Sabryna Sylvester. Mike dedicated his life to being the most loving and selfless dad he could be. Every decision he made, song he would listen to, or every crazy documentary he watched (and there was a lot of them) attributed to the life he created for his daughter. She was his pride and joy.
He was always seeking adventure and some sort of way to get that rush of adrenaline he always craved. Even though he suffered from many health complications over the past few years, he still found a way to make the best of every moment. He was a fighter.
Mike is survived by his loving, nurturing mother, Claire Bergeron, father, Thomas Bergeron; sister, Karen Bergeron; niece Taylor Bergeron; grandmother Lillian Benoit; and his compassionate partner and the love of his life, Tammy Sylvester. He was predeceased by his grandparents Gloria and Louis Bergeron, grandfather Irenee Vachon; and his uncle Rocky Bergeron. He will be greatly missed by all of his family and friends.
Visitation will be held Saturday July 17 from 1 to 3 p.m. with a funeral ceremony beginning at 3 p.m. at the Pinette Dillingham & Lynch Funeral Home 305 Alfred Plourde Parkway, Lewiston.
