We at the Muskegon County Republican Party will miss Michael in countless ways. He was a unique and bold individual. His commitment to education that restores the historical foundations of our country­—the right to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness­—and his values for faith, family, and freedom were the motivations behind everything he did. He brought these alive to those around him.


His servant leadership style was evident every day in the way he worked to handle any need, and he excelled at everything he set his mind to. Michael singlehandedly updated our financial technology and processes, and meticulously managed our books as Treasurer. He brought a wealth of insight, knowledge and wisdom.


Michael had the gifts of verbal and written communication to clearly convey complex ideas with such sincerity and compassion that people leaned in to the wisdom he imparted. As Communications Vice Chair he brought synergetic collaboration to gather, write, and edit articles for publication on our website.


Michael was passionate for advancing conservative causes and ran for 92nd State Representative in 2020. For two years, we were privileged and honored to be a part of Michael’s life and have benefited from all that he shared with us.


To his loving family, he talked about you often and loved you dearly, especially his grandchildren. You are his legacy and he worked incredibly hard to make this world a better place for you. He truly laid down his life for you and those he will never know.


We will miss Michael in countless ways but will miss him most for his smile, sense of humor, and infectious positivity. He was loved greatly, lived life fully, and left an impossible hole to fill. Rest In Peace Michael Del Percio; you are sorely missed.
