ABOUT MICHAEL

Michael Berube was a loving son, twin brother to Saige, and big brother to Leah. His love and dedication to his family was unwavering and his commitment to his community was evident.

His natural warmth and kindness made others feel included, especially those faced with adversity.

Always wanting to help, he often put others before himself. Michael's humor and infectious smile was a light for those around him.

Michael was a dedicated wrestler, first as a Long Beach Gladiator and then as a teammate on the Long Beach High School Varsity Team. His work ethic and commitment to his team made him invaluable as a beloved brother and friend, both on and off the mats.  

Michael loved the beach, the ocean and the Long Beach community, and took tremendous pride in becoming a Long Beach Lifeguard.
