In Loving Memory of Michael Jason Studer

Michael Jason (M.J., Emjay) Studer, was born on July 24th, 1978 to Mary Frances Lawless Studer and Michael Thomas Studer. He lived a beautiful 44 years and, unknown to why, died on June 29, 2023.

Emjay shared most of his life with his beloved, Elizabeth. From high school to three children, their deep devotion carried through the hardest and most beautiful days.

Emjay's greatest pride and accomplishments were his three incredible children.

Liam, his first son, has amazed him with his courage and authenticity which he brings to every corner of his life. Declan, his second son and mini-me, was his partner in all things sports (especially Yankees, Knicks, New York Football Giants), music, and Emjay-esque banter. And his baby girl, Matilda, who he described as "next level", before getting on the bus every morning would give her a kiss and say "You're a superstar- take what's yours."

Emjay was born three weeks late, on his father's birthday, to his dad's elation and his mom's relief. Their son, so deeply and unconditionally loved, brought them their best moments in life. Singing "Angel of the Morning" to his mom as a curly- haired toddler to watching The Godfather with his dad at five years old, he was their love, their life, their buddy.

His sisters, Kathy and Kristin, love him beyond measure.

His in-laws, Janet, Rich, Vicki, Ron, and Tyler love him beyond measure.

His nieces, nephew, aunts, uncles, cousins, and many, dear friends love him beyond measure.

Donating to this fund will help financially offset the unexpected funeral costs as well as assist with the care of his family.

There will be a wake Friday, July 14th from 1-5 at Hungerford and Clark Funeral Home in Freeport, NY
