Beloved Michael John Percy, 67, born in Kingston, Ontario to John and Mary Percy, passed away on May 30th, 2022 surrounded by family in his home in Victoria BC.
Through his passion for fashion and his dapper style, Michael found his calling as a hairstylist for 48 years. He opened Michael John Hair Design in 1986 where his colleagues and clients became lifelong friends and were very dear to him. Michael moved to Victoria in 1978 with his wife, Jayne, where they raised their family of 3 children, Brittany, Christian and Janelle. He was a kind and loving partner to Jayne, an amazing father to his three children and a fun Poppi to his 5 grandchildren. In his spare time he loved tennis, cheering his children on in sports, junk food night, hockey, family vacations at the lake and spending time with his family and friends. He always kept us laughing with his bad dad jokes and funny antics.
Michael is survived by his wife, Jayne; children, Brittany (Dallas), Christian (Ariana) and Janelle (Alex); grandchildren, Rocklind, Easton, Lincoln, Alora and Lennox; sisters, Darlene (deceased), Sandra, Joanne, and Pamela; brother, John; stepbrother, Peter, stepsister; Jane and numerous aunts, uncles, nieces and nephews. Heaven received a good one.
The family is holding a private Funeral and Celebration of Life on June 10th, 2022. We ask that any donations made in Michael’s honour be made to your local animal shelter. Michael always had a soft spot for dogs.
Condolences may be offered to the family below.

It is with sadness I am reading of M.Js passing. We worked together for a number of years and had nice memories of M.J, as we affectionately called him.
My condolences to all the family
So sorry to hear of Michael‘s passing. He was my hairstylist for 40 years, we jokingly referred to him as my hair husband.
We had many great conversations about our children as they grew up, movies, music and very often, hockey particularly the Canucks. I have seen him struggle over these past few years but he faced it all with such courage and good spirits. He is so proud of his family and I know he was a wonderful dad and granddad. Heaven truly did get a good one. My deep condolences to all his family, he loved you very much .
