Michael Henry Kampney
 CROGHAN- Michael Henry Kampney passed away on Friday, October 13, 2023 at his home in Croghan, NY. He was born in
Carthage, NY, on September 1, 1960, a son of Leo Kampney
and Dorothy Myers.
Mike graduated
from Lowville Academy in 1978. Mike grew up in Soft Maple, lived in
Lowville before purchasing property on the New Road in Croghan, NY, later
buying property on County Route 143, in Black River, before he returned to
his New Road property to retire.
Mike worked
various farmhand jobs for Lyndaker Excavating & Trucking, the Lowville
Cheese Plant, his own firewood business and
several taxi companies before starting his own cab company, JNL Taxi, that
provided reliable and friendly service to Fort Drum for many years. Mike,
lastly, worked as a Domino's pizza delivery driver on Fort Drum before his
retirement. Mike enjoyed the outdoors and taking long drives. However, JNL
Taxi and his family were ultimately what he was most proud of from his
life’s accomplishments.
Mike was a loving
father, grandfather, brother, and friend, whose absence will be deeply felt
by all who knew him. He is survived by his children, Joy Kampney Hirschey and Jeremy Kampney, with Darlene Leaf, Nickolas Kampney and Noah Kampney,
with Teresa Taylor, his two chosen daughters, April Hall and Mikhaila
Taylor, his six grandchildren, his siblings, Stephanie, Aden and Bill and a
large extended family. He was predeceased by his parents, Leo Kampney and Dorothy “Dottie” Myers Knight.
A private
graveside service will be at St. Stephen’s Cemetery, Croghan, with Rev.
