Michael T. ‘Mike’ Hyland 1952-2023

Michael was born Aug. 14, 1952, in Youngstown, a son of the late Edward and Mary C. George Hyland, and was a lifelong area resident.

He was a graduate of East High School, and in his younger days, Mike worked at car washes and gas stations on the East Side.

Mike was a hard worker and was always providing for his family. He was a bricklayer by trade and worked many jobs throughout his lifetime. He worked at Youngstown Sheet and Tube Campbell Works; Republic Steel in Cleveland; LTV Steel in Aliquippa, Pa.; FedEx in Youngstown as a courier; and FedEx in Solon as an operations manager, from where he retired after 21 years.

After retirement, Mike worked as a groundskeeper at Mill Creek Golf Course for a short time, and as a stationary engineer and pipefitter at Delphi for 10 years.

Mr. Hyland was a longtime member of the former Holy Name of Jesus Church in Youngstown.

He truly enjoyed sharing his life with his family.

Mike will always be remembered as a man who wore many hats, but the hat that he was the most proud of wearing was being a loving husband, dad, papa and grandpa.

Michael leaves to cherish his memory, his wife of nearly 50 years, Kathleen Koval Hyland, whom he married June 23, 1973; his three children, Shane (Cheri) Hyland of Youngstown, Chad Hyland of Austintown and Amber Hyland (Marty Mulligan) of Ashville, N.C.; two granddaughters, Madde Hyland and Hope Hyland; a sister-in-law, Linda Hyland of Boardman; a brother-in-law, James Burrell of Youngstown; and many nieces, nephews and extended family members, including Bill and Lou Spencer, Mickey Koval, Judy Koval, Andy and Sue Koval, and Kenny and Lisa Koval.

Mike will be sadly missed by all who knew and loved him.

His father, Edward Hyland; his mother, Mary Hyland Dixon; a brother, Edward Hyland; a sister, Mary Jane Burrell; a brother-in-law, James Koval; a sister-in-law, Rosemary Reigelman; and a niece, preceded Michael in death.
