Michael was born without the ability to speak or hear. Nevertheless, these obstacles never stopped Michael from learning. He learned sign language at an early age. And, his physical obstacles did not prevent him from living and enjoying life. He was loving and caring with a beautiful soul and giving heart. Michael attended elementary and high school in the Chicago Public School System. After high school, Michael had a few jobs across different industries. However, Michael most enjoyed his job at the United States Postal Service. He was employed with the Postal Service over 26 years. He made many friends at USPS. One of his closest friends, Sebrina Jennings, is a friend who worked with him at USPS. They developed a close friendship and Michael was like a brother to Sebrina. Michael was preceded in death by his father Frank Twyman, mother, Luginne Twyman, brother, Charles Steward Jr. and sister Valerie McKenzie. Michael departed this life on Friday, September 30, 2016. He leaves to cherish his remaining siblings: Yolanda Twyman (George) Wilson, Carl Twyman; Lela Mae Twyman; Madeline Nash; Lillian Williams; Fannie Kakonge; Toni Laudededale; Maureen Twyman; Francine Gray; sister-in-law, Brenda Steward; nephews, nieces, and a host of cousins and friends.

We miss you now, our hearts are sore as time goes by, we'll miss you more your loving smile, your gentle face no one can fill your vacant place. Lip is But A Hopping Place Life is but a stopping place, a pause in what's to be, A resting place along the road, to sweet eternity. We all have different journeys. Different paths along the way, We all were meant to learn some things, but never meant to stay... Our destination is a place, far greater than we know For some the journey's quicker, for some the journey's slow. And when the journey finally ends, we'll claim a great reward, And find an everlasting peace, together with the lord Acknowledgement The family wishes to express their sincere gratitude to all those who prayed and supported us during this time of loss. ~ The Twyman & Steward Family Arrangoments and Directions Entrusted I eak and Sons Funeral Chape (773) 846-6567 7838 S.
