Obituary

Michael J. Munson, 61, of Quincy, passed away peacefully on September 28th, 2019 with his father, mother, brother, and a long-time friend by his side. Michael was born on December 9th, 1958 in Yonkers, New York, the son of George and Carol (Acierno) Munson. He attended Yonkers Public Schools, and graduated from Yonkers High School. Michael loved Yonkers, and would return there a number of times over the years to be with his friends. Michael also loved to play the drums, and even played with the likes of Billy Idol in a band for some time in his earlier years in Yonkers.
Michael moved to Boston, MA in 1993, and became a police officer for the state at The Shattuck in Jamaica Plain. He absolutely loved his job, and would serve the state and its people at the Shattuck for 26 years until his death. Michael had many co-workers and friends who loved him, and who enjoyed his dry sense of humor and genuine caring personality.
Michael was an avid Oakland Raiders, New York Mets and Kevin Harvick fan, and he stuck with them through thick and thin. He was also a huge fan of the Ramones, and Kiss, and continued to use his Walkman and old cassette tapes to listen to his favorite music. He loved living in Boston, and made a really wonderful life there for himself with many caring and loving friends. He was especially very affectionate toward his cats, and we all know that Ms. Kitty is sitting in his lap right now. The City of Boston was truly a better place for having Michael in it for so many wonderful years.
Michael is survived by his parents George and Carol Munson, his brother’s Jeff, Brent, and Scott Munson. Michael is also survived by the many wonderful friends that became his family that loved and cared for him over the years that he lived in Boston. They all truly were his love, and his life was richer and fuller for having had them around him.
