Michael was born in Kansas City, KS on May 5, 1943 to Matthew J. and Mary Ellen (Turk) Bozich.  He grew up in Kansas City KS and started working at Sunshine Biscuits where he met the love of his life and wife of 59 years, Barbara Kerley.  Shortly after they were married, Michael joined the United States Army and they moved to Colorado.  After the U.S. Army, Mike and Barbara moved back to the Kansas City area where he started his Railroad career at Rock Island Railroad and Amtrak.  In 1972, Tabatha was born and shortly after, the family moved to the Belton/Raymore area where they have lived for the past 44 years.  Mike became a member of the Belton Church of Christ and was Baptized in 1990.
