Michael Robert Haas

Michael Robert "Mike" Haas, a man who loved life, laughter, and a good baseball game, passed away on June 21, 2023, in Greenville, SC. Born on September 24, 1974, in Lansing, MI, Mike was a man who lived by the motto, "It is what it is," and he did so with a smile on his face and a twinkle in his eye.
Mike was a man who loved his family with all his heart. His wife, Lisa, was his whole world, and he was hers. Together, they raised two beautiful daughters, Hannah Farmwald and Chynna Robertson. Mike was also a beloved uncle to his niece, Abbigail Dressner, and a cherished brother-in-law to Debbie Dressner. He was predeceased by his parents, Robert, and Gail Haas, but his memories of them lived on in the stories he told and the love he shared.
Mike was a man who loved to make people laugh. He had a knack for finding humor in the everyday and could always be counted on to lighten the mood with a well-timed joke or a funny story. He was a kind soul, always ready to lend a hand or offer a word of encouragement. His laughter was infectious, his spirit was uplifting, and his heart was as big as his sense of humor.
Mike was also a man of unique interests. He loved smoking weed, not just for the high, but for the camaraderie and the conversations that came with it. He was a die-hard baseball fan, always ready to cheer on his team and debate the merits of the latest trades. He had a soft spot for animals, especially his dog Brody and his snake Diablo. His love for these creatures was a testament to his gentle nature and his ability to find joy in the simple things in life.
In the words of the great Robin Williams, "You're only given a little spark of madness. You mustn't lose it." Mike Haas was a man who embraced his spark of madness and used it to light up the world around him. He was a loving husband, a devoted father, a loyal friend, and a beacon of laughter and love in a world that often needs more of both.
So, here's to Mike Haas, a man who lived his life with laughter, loved with all his heart, and left this world a little brighter than he found it. He will be deeply missed, but his spirit will live on in the laughter and love he left behind. It is what it is, and what it was, was a life well-liv ed.
