Plaistow – Michael A. Carrigan, 65, died Monday July 3, 2023, at his home following a courageous battle with cancer.

Born February 23, 1958, in Neenah, WI, he was the son of Ralph A. Carrigan and Ann (Wilkinson) Miller.

Growing up, Michael attended Mystic Elementary, Lynch Middle and High school in Winchester, MA,
then graduated from Brewster Academy in Wolfeboro, NH. He also attended Keene State College in
Keene, NH for one year. Michael excelled in sports, and especially loved the art of baseball. Michael
worked as a truck driver for Eastern Propane and Townsend Energy for over 30 years. His passion was being a part of the JPR Race team as the team manager for over 20 years.

Michael was a devoted family man that enjoyed many hobbies and passions. Some of which included listening to soft jazz while cooking breakfast for his family on Sunday mornings, reading many novels by Tom Clancy and John Grisham before bed, road trips to Damariscotta, ME to spend time with his mother Ann and stepfather Roger, spending time at many racing speedways with his lifelong friends, rooting on his New England sports teams, and hosting cookouts for his friends and family. He enjoyed helping his children accelerate in their sports and arts as they grew up and he was always in the crowd or behind the concession stand.
