shared a passion for dance with Donna. In earlier years, the two competed 
successfully in the regional ballroom circuit. Prior to his disability, he 
continued to entertain family and friends with front-lawn cartwheels and other

contractors and craftsman to promote masonry construction. In this regard, he

Board of Appeals. Mike achieved great satisfaction in mentoring young people in 
the construction business and especially enjoyed his guest-lecturer role at 
Lawrence Tech, where he annually donned his Santa Claus costume to discuss 
fireplace and chimney design and construction with students. His commitment to 
two generations of young people is now recognized by MIM s annual award of the 
Michael Navetta Scholarship to a deserving architectural student. Mike was a 
combat veteran of the Korean War and recipient of the Bronze Star. He was active 
in the VFW and the Italian-American Club. A native Detroiter, he lived in Novi
