      Sunday, February 28th, 1960 - Tuesday, October 3rd, 2023

      Michael Ludwig Piereder, born February 28th, 1960, passed away peacefully on October 3rd, 2023. Michael is predeceased by his father, Ludwig Piereder, and is survived by (estranged) wife Michele, his children Jinelle (Eric), Dayne (Kate), Brandon (Andrea), and Ashely, as well as his two granddaughters. He is also remembered by his mother (Astrid Piereder), siblings and their spouses, and many nieces and nephews.

      Michael was a strong and dependable provider, who took pride in his work as a mechanical designer after completing his Associate's Degree in Arts and Sciences from Ricks College in 1979. He loved woodworking and gifted many pieces to extended family over the years. He loved to thoroughly research when shopping and always had the latest pieces of technology and the coolest kitchen gadgets; from computers and audio/visual equipment to bread machines and orange juicers. Michael could often be found tinkering in the garage with one of his beloved Jettas, and had many different cars and motorcycles over the years. He was a film enthusiast and enjoyed sharing movies and tv shows with others. He enjoyed cooking dinner for his family, especially on Sundays, and his spaghetti bolognese and chicken cacciatore were always big hits. Michael was also a lifelong faithful member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints, and served a mission in Vanuatu from 1979-1981.

      A neurodegenerative disease took Michael's ability to enjoy his many hobbies towards the end, but he continued to find joy in his family, and in his love for good movies and shows. Since 2020, his children and their partners have worked hard to care for and support Michael through his final years. They would like to thank the Home Care staff, and AgeCare West Williams Long Term Care (formerly Chartwell Westmount Long Term Care) staff for the care they provided to Michael.

      Michael's family will receive relatives and friends from 12:00 PM - 12:45 PM on Thursday, October 12th, 2023 at The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, 10 Lorraine Ave, Kitchener, ON . Michael's funeral will be held in the church chapel at 1:00 PM. Those who are unable to attend the service are welcome to join the family virtually at https://www.henrywalser.com/live-streaming
      Interment at Parkview Cemetery.

      In lieu of flowers, the family has asked for donations to the Ontario Brain Institute Foundation. (cards available at the funeral home )
