In Loving Memory of Michael "Mikey" Geiselman

Michael "Mikey" Geiselman, a beloved brother, uncle, partner, and friend, passed away leaving behind a legacy of laughter, kindness, and love. Known for his warm heart, sharp wit, and unmatched skill with a paintbrush, Mikey made every space he touched more beautiful — not just through his craft as an expert painter, but through the way he brought joy to those around him.

Mikey was a man of many passions. He was a loyal Chicago Bears fan through every season, always ready to cheer on his team with heart and humor. He loved the peaceful challenge of golf, the camaraderie of bowling, and the thrill of Las Vegas — a city he loved for its lights, energy, and excitement. But more than anything, Mikey cherished a good laugh and meaningful time spent with the people he loved most.

He was preceded in death by his loving parents, Harold "Pudge" Geiselman and Gloria Jean Geiselman, whose memories he carried with him always.

Mikey is survived by his devoted girlfriend, Phyllis Ostrowski (Stephanie), and his brother, Daniel Geiselman. He was a proud and loving uncle to Anthony Geiselman and his wife Hannah, and their daughter Violet Glo; Zac Geiselman and his wife Kate, and their children Coop and Scarlette Rae; and Samantha Bell and her husband Matt and their children Lilli and Griffin. His family was his heart, and he held each of them close, never missing a chance to celebrate their lives and accomplishments.

Mikey's humor, kindness, and unwavering goodness touched everyone who had the privilege to know him. He leaves behind a hole that can never be filled, but also countless memories that will be held tightly in the hearts of those he loved. He will be missed deeply, remembered always, and loved forever.
