Michael Charles Campagna, born September 4th, 1989, was truly one of a kind. A devoted husband, the most incredible father, son, brother, best friend, and coach. He loved fiercely and without limits. Michael served his country with honor in the United States Navy for 18 years as a mentor, teacher, friend, and leader. He was a farmer, an entrepreneur, and a dreamer, creating a future rooted in love while working to build an empire for his wife and children. On December 12th, 2025, Michael was called home. He leaves behind a legacy of loyalty, service, laughter, and a love so deep it will be felt forever. Now, he waits at the gate for those he loves holding the hand of Jesus.
