With heavy hearts, the Poquiz family is saddened to announce the passing of Michael, a beloved husband and father. A longtime Bay Area resident, Michael was born on May 2nd, 1969 to Luisa & Miguel Poquiz in San Francisco, California. He spent most of his life in the Bay Area, living in San Francisco, Union City, & Fremont throughout the years. He ended his journey on November 11th, 2023.
He is survived by his loving wife, Denise Poquiz, and their two daughters. Michael and Denise had been together since 1991, married since 1997. He was a devoted husband, having spent 32 years together with Denise. His legacy also lives on in his daughters, Isabel and Maya. He is also survived by his mother, Luisa, and younger brother, Mark.
Michael was a talented engineer at Lam Research for 28 years. He was an excellent problem-solver and enjoyed working with his hands at work, on cars, or around the house. He was a proud veteran, having served in the Army Reserves straight out of high school at the age of 18.
He was a dedicated and loving family man, whose warm presence gave those around him a sense of safety and security. His generous and thoughtful nature impacted the lives of many, and those who loved him take comfort in the out pour of condolences from friends, family members, and coworkers.
In lieu of a funeral service, Michael will be cremated and ashes spread by his loved ones in Hawaii in a celebration of life, as he wished.
