Obituary of Michael J. Strober

Michael J Strober died at 78 on March 9, 2022, after his courageous battle with pancreatic cancer. He was surrounded by loved ones at home at the time of his passing.

Michael was a Brooklyn native who fell in love with JoAnn McLeod, a southern girl from Gainesville, FL and the pair started their life together in Westchester, NY. Ten years and 4 kids later, the Strober family put roots down in Tampa, Fl where they currently reside.

He will be remembered for decades to come for his humor, his larger-than-life personality, and natural ability of cultivating meaningful relationships with all walks of life.

Michael is survived by his wife of 40 years (JoAnn), his son Randy, daughter Beth and husband Aaron Steele, his son Ben Strober and wife Alexis, his daughter Jessica, his daughter Emily and husband Jesse Abbott, his daughter Caitlin and husband Louis Russo, 5 grandsons and dog, Bear.
