Michael J. Perrault Jr., 50 of South Lawrence passed way surrounded by his loving family on March 20, 2015 at the Merrimack Valley Hospice House. Michael was born on March 9, 1965 in Lawrence. From a very young age, Michael took a great liking to all things related to any Boston sports teams. His biggest passion was for his beloved Boston Red Sox. For over thirty years in April, Michael could be found at Red Sox Opening Day. Opening Day brought Michael great joy because as a die-hard Red Sox fan, no matter what had happened the previous season, Michael always looked to Opening Day as a new page in the team’s storied history. He was a long time member of the Lawrence B.P.O.E. # 65. He also enjoyed trips to Florida to golf and hang out at the beach on a great sunny day with his father Michael Sr. Michael was a very generous soul, always donating both time and money to friends and charities.
Michael was the loving son Michael J. Perrault Sr. of Lincoln, NH and the late Joyce (Seguin) Perrault. He was the dear brother of Kevin Perrault and his wife Cheryl of Salem, NH and Kristen Paolino and her husband Jamie of South Lawrence. Michael was the cherished uncle of Petra and Olivia Perrault both of Salem, NH. He will be fondly remembered by his close group of friends at The Catcher’s Mitt of Lowell.
