Michael Thomas Mattox, age 75 of Adrian passed away peacefully on Thursday, July 27, 2017 at St. Joseph Mercy Hospital in Ann Arbor, MI. He was born on October 30, 1941 in Toledo, Ohio to Lewis H. and Lois I. (Wilson) Mattox. Michael attended Woodward High School in Toledo and graduated with the Class of 1961.

Michael enjoyed traveling to various places and taking in a good movie with his wife, Gloria.
