On Sunday, January 19, 2025; Michael Mark Mielech, 72 of Towson, Maryland. Beloved life partner to Harriet Van Kleeck of 22 years.

Mike was born in New Jersey and was a graduate of Rutgers University.  He was a professional retouch artist for Sports Illustrated, Quad Graphics and Conair and for a brief period was a taxi driver in New York City.  He moved around a bit but one of his favorite places to live was Saratoga, NY.

He was passionate about skiing, cycling, and photography.  He cycled with friends Tom, Bill and Andy in Montana and Colorado and traveled to many places in Europe and the States with friends and his long time partner, Harriet Van Kleeck.

We miss him greatly. Please remember Mike by signing his guest book.
