Michael Dumais

I was married in October of 1981 and over a 10 year period had four children. Spent 22 years working for Armstrong Pumps, Inc. in North Tonawanda and then decided to try life living out of state. In 2001 I moved to Arkansas for a brief one year period. I found myself back in NY working at Delphi for 2-3 years and then at a Clarence based company for about another 2 years. Now I am back at Armstrong Pumps, Inc. If feels like I never left. I still live in North Tonawanda and love every minute of it. There are time I sit and reflect on how much the city has changed. To repeat a famous line "there's no place like home." I spend my days caring for my family and enjoying our grandchildren, Hailey and Jaden. I cannot believe that the time has gone so fast. Wow, I am actually a grandfather. I also spend much of my time devoted to spiritual activities. This keeps me focused in this crazy world we live in. My family and I still enjoy following our Buffalo Sabres even though there isn't much to be happy about. We attend about 20-25 games a year (season ticket holders). We love vacationing in Nashville, TN in the summer and we make other trips throughout the year to Cleveland, Pittsburgh, Philly, NYC.
