About	Michael “Mikey” Farnsworth, was a special man with a big heart for anyone he met. He was a father, father-in-law, pawpaw, son, brother, uncle, and friend. He passed away unexpectedly at home on Wednesday, August 10, 2022 and went to be with his heavenly father at the youthful age of 66. He was born on October 6, 1955 to the late Charles Ross Farnworth and Arlene (Campbell) Farnworth. He grew up in Ontario, Ohio attending Ontario High School and Pioneer Joint Vocational School, graduating class of 1974. He played softball from school age through his young adult years. He worked at Westinghouse from 1977 through 1990. He went on to work at various other jobs until retirement. Michael never knew a stranger. People would describe him as a big teddy bear, kind soul, happy man, a funny man, a man who loved life and was proud. He was especially proud of his grandkids and children. He still loved his former stepchildren, and their families, through his end of his life. He did not get to see or talk to them much anymore but to him once family, you are always family. He lived by that. An avid Cleveland Browns, Cleveland Indians, and OSU fan, he was sure to be watching or listening when they played. He enjoyed vintage cars, music, line dancing in his earlier years, and cracking a joke. He had a love for animals, but was especially fond of dogs and enjoyed pet sitting. Being social, he especially enjoyed gathering on holidays, and lunch or breakfast outings with friends and family. He had a love for the Lord. He always kept his faith and knew the Lord would always provide his needs. He leaves behind many loved ones here in this earthly life, his children, Kristen (Jonathan) Franks and Jessica Farnsworth;
