Michael worked as a mechanic for SJA Transport in Rockford prior to his illness. He loved fishing, especially at Laurel River Lake in Corbin, Kentucky. Michael spent every available moment at Laurel River Lake and knew every part of the lake well.

In addition to his father and wife, Michael was preceded in death by a son, Eric Lee Vann and Eric's wife April; brother, Eugene Kent Vann; and granddaughter, Aubry.
Services will be held 11:00 am Friday, December 2, 2022, at Ketcham Ripley Funeral Home, 111 W. First Street, Rockford, OH 45882, with Pastor Robert Sweeney officiating. Burial will be private.
