He retired from DuPont after 32 years of service, 17 years as a power house operator on B shift. He was scout master for Troop 249 in Seaford, and he was an avid reader. He loved camping and traveling.

Hearn (Mike); five grandchildren, Destinee R. Depew, Megan D. Hearn, Ryan M. Hearn, Keirstin B. Depew, and Gabriel C. Hearn; one great-grandchild, Zayden C. Depew; and several nieces and nephews.

A celebration of life will be held at a later date.
