FIERRO, Michael

Michael Fierro, born on April 29, 1952, passed from this life unexpectedly on May 23, 2012. Michael was born and raised in his beloved Santa Barbara, attending local schools and graduating from Santa Barbara High School. Michael's love of music led him to become a life-long musician playing bass guitar. Michael also loved sports, was an avid reader and his great knowledge of both history and music was astonishing. He also refurbished homes, and worked for Mammoth Moving for a number of years driving truck cross-country where he enjoyed and shared his many adventures. Michael was a kind, loving and free-spirited person with a great sense of humor, so funny. He loved to be out at events mingling and making you smile. He befriended everyone he met and he had many, many friends. Michael's loving free spirit will be deeply missed by his sister Lori Sneddon, niece Rachel Sneddon, brother Brian Aceves, cousins, and many close friends.

A memorial Mass will be held on Wednesday, June 13, 10:00 a.m., at Our Lady of Sorrows Church, 21 E. Sola Street, followed by an optional potluck gathering in the Church Hall.
