About Michael L. Fox, 56, of Rockford, Ohio passed away on Thursday, September 14, 2017, at UT Medical Center in Toledo, Ohio, after a recent motorcycle accident. He was born on May 30, 1961, in Mercer County, Ohio, to Gary and Delight (Felver) Fox. On November 19, 1983, he married his loving wife, Nikki Sapp, who survives in Rockford.

Mike was a fun-loving husband, father, grandpa, son, brother, uncle, and friend. He loved his family dearly and especially loved their huge family vacations. Mike loved to ride his motorcycle and even joked that he would bury it with him some day. His love for riding with family and friends eventually inspired him and other family members to create the "Fox Family Ride for Autism", which raised money that the family donated to purchase electronic devices to help change the lives of many kids with autism, many of them local students. Mike lived all of his life in the Mercer county area and was involved in many organizations. He was a member of the Rockford Eagles and the Shanes Masonic Lodge. He graduated from Parkway High School in 1979, and worked at Plastipak Packaging in Jackson Center as a fork lift operator.

Surviving in addition to his wife Nikki are their children: Son, Zach (Amanda) Fox of Holly Springs, NC, and daughters Sarah (Jim) Manzoni, Lemont, PA and Becca Fox of Wapakoneta, OH. Also surviving are his mother, Delight Fox, of Rockford; sister, Holly (Chris) Snyder of Sylvania, OH; brother, Jeff (Curtis) Brock-Fox of Columbus, OH; Gary (Mandy) Fox of Rockford; 3 grandkids, 10 nieces and nephews; and 8 great nieces and nephews. Preceding him in death was his father, Gary V. Fox.
