Mike was employed by the Wisconsin Cheeseman in Sun Prairie, JC Whitney in Chicago and other companies throughout the country in the direct marketing industry until starting McCarthy Media Group in 1996 serving as President until he passed away.
Mike enjoyed nothing more than spending time with his children and laughing. He also enjoyed golfing, skiing, playing cards with friends, traveling, as well as time playing and spoiling the McCarthy family pets, which he adored. He was an avid reader of books and magazines but especially the newspaper. He read the paper daily and consistent with his love to laugh, he looked forward most to the comics and sharing them with his family and friends. In the last few years, he particularly enjoyed conversations at the VA with fellow Veterans where he felt a strong bond with many of those he met.
Mike is survived by his three children; Robert McCarthy, Michelle (Rich Loether) Klessig and Carrie (Corey) Knautz all of Sun Prairie; brother Patrick McCarthy of Indianapolis; former spouse Joan (Kuemmel) McCarthy of Sun Prairie and many other relatives and friends. He was preceded in death by his parents and brother Joseph McCarthy.
