Obituary of Michael Tamasi

Michael A. Tamasi, Jr., 73 passed away February 27th, surrounded by his family. Born in Princeton, Mike attented St. Paul's School, went on to complete Trade (Vo-Tech) School in New Brunswick. He was a member of New Jersey Carpenters Union, Princeton Local 781 for over 50 years. Mike and his wife love to travel. Every April-May, they would pack the car up and head for the West Coast. They did this seven times and enjoyed every moment of it. Each time they would take a different route, trying to see all there was to see. But Mike's love for the automobile was something else. He was always in the garage with his sons working on something. Mike had restored two cuda's (65-66) plus a 1970. He had just completed restoring his wife's 1969 Chrysler Town & Country Station Wagon. He was going to start showing the car this Spring. Maybe his wife will go on where he left off.
