Mike was born on March 23, 1957 in Orlando, Florida, to the late Richard J. Koloski and Shirley Mansell Howard. Mike served honorably in the United States Air Force from 1977 until 1981.

In baseball, he was a power hitter and led his team in homeruns. Mike was an avid sports fan and followed the Braves and Nascar throughout his life enjoying many races and games in person. He was preceded in death by his loving parents; his stepfather, Charles R. Howard; and his brother, Ronald G. Koloski.
Mikes memory will forever be treasured by his surviving sister, Sherry Koloski of Warner Robins; brother, Richard A. Koloski (Maria-Lorena) of Destin, Florida; nieces and nephews, Shannon Clark (Billy) of Rentz, Tina Hulett of Warner Robins, Matthew Puryear of Hope Mills, New Jersey, Justin Koloski of Fort Walton Beach, Florida, and Venessa and Veronica Koloski, both of Machias, Maine.
