Mickey moved to Maine at the age of 3. As a young man, he participated in community theatre and loved to sing. He was a lifelong member of the Beth Abraham Synagogue where served as Gabbai, and was part of the Chevrah Kadisha. He delighted many children over the decades with candy in the synagogue on the Sabbath. Mickey was very involved with his Jewish faith and gave much to Jewish charities over the years. He owned Sklar\u2019s Kosher Meats and Delicatessen, providing kosher foods to the Jewish community and to kosher camps for years. His second career, and one he was very passionate about, was as a realtor. After his hard work developing the Randolph Drive subdivision for the City of Bangor, the city recognized him with a proclamation for all his efforts. Mickey was a graduate of the Maine Maritime Academy.<\/p>\n
