Michael Elson Rivera passed away on Thursday, October 7, 2021 at the age of 33. Michael was born September 22, 1988, in Marrero, LA at West Jefferson Hospital and raised most of his life in Kenner, LA. Loved by so many he was the man to light up any room he walked in. His infectious laugh could have you rolling on the floor with tears. His hugs were one we will miss the most. His number one fan was his loving and supporting wife. They have four beautiful, sweet, kind loving kids. Mike loved all his family dearly and would do anything to give them the world. His recent conversations with his wife about how they wanted to raise their children in a spiritual home so they could grow to have a love and passion for Jesus and surround themselves around a positive environment was on his heart and mind. He will be missed by so many. Until we meet again. Beloved husband of Nahomy Vasquez Rivera. Loving father of Michelle, Mariana, Michael Jr. and Mia Rivera. Son of Sherry Lynn Morgan and Miguel Rivera (Elizabeth). Brother of Lendy Chirinos (Leslie). Uncle of Rogan Chirinos. Son-in-law of Maria Elena Moran and Jose Miranda.
