Obituary
Michael William Lezark
66, of Lower Burrell, died unexpectedly Tuesday December 24, 2024 in his home. He was born in Charleroi on September 15, 1958 to the late Emery W. Lezark and Donna Jean Knepshield Lezark Shirley and has been a resident of Lower Burrell since 1986 and had previously resided in Gilpin Twp. and Apollo.
Mr. Lezark worked in construction management and was the owner/operator of MLezark CMS, LLC.

Whether it was a BBQ in the backyard, going on trips to the Strip District or carrying the bags during many shopping trips, he was never happier than when he was with them.
