Michael was born in St. Johns, Michigan on December 29, 1942, the son of Carl Jay and Marie (Georgia) Ludwick. He graduated from St. Johns High School.

Mick left the world with few regrets. He was adored by his children, grandchildren, and loyal friends. One of Mick's greatest attributes was his ability to listen, give advice, and laugh with everyone he came in contact with. Mick's love of people, keen business sense, and passion for playing pool led to fulfilling his dream of owning a bar. He loved meeting new friends and patrons and creating an atmosphere for all to feel welcome and like they had a home away from home. For over 40 years, Mick took great pride in being a member and sponsor of several teams on the St. Johns and Lansing pool leagues. He lived his life to the fullest by doing everything on his own terms. Mick found the most happiness in being with his family. Mick passed away knowing how much his family loved him and leaving no doubt as to how much he loved them. He was such a loving and generous man and he will be truly missed by everyone.

He is survived by his daughter Michelle Ludwick, son Michael Jr. and Sheryl Ludwick, mother Marie Smith, and grandchildren; Jarrod Barkley and Micheala Ludwick.  He was preceded in death by his father Carl and 3 brothers; Ron, Jon and Sam.
