Michael J. Cipriano- Passed away unexpectedly at home on April 11 ^th , 2022, at 41 years. He was the beloved son of Paula Donatelli. Loving brother of Jessica Kelly and Bryan Kelly. Loving nephew of Michelle Cipriano. Loving companion of Deborah Keefe. Dog father to Jacie. Special friend of GiGi Steffen. He is also survived by many loving cousins and friends.

Unfortunately, his life was cut short on April 11, 2022, which took him away from his passion and dedication to giving back to others along with the ones who loved him.

Mike was known to all that knew him well as Cip. He started producing music and working in the music industry in his early 20's. He became the owner and operator of his very own recording and production studio known as Split2nd Entertainment. Through the years Cip worked with many accomplished recording artists, as well as new aspiring artists and rappers from all over the New England area. He worked at length with artists such as Mighty Mystic, DJ Money Mills, AJ Reynolds, Camilla, Concept, Dan Sky, and the list goes on. Cip also placed music with national artists such as Pitbull, and his music was presented in many movies and television shows throughout the years. Cip's vision had always been to bring out the absolute best of all the artists he worked with and help them make the best music possible for their careers.

One of the biggest qualities of Cip was to put others' needs before his own. He had the biggest heart and was one of a kind. Cip lived by the mantra "If Cip can't fix it, it can't be fixed". He will be remembered as thoughtful, caring, creator, mentor and stay with us for eternity.

Relatives and friends are kindly invited to attend visiting hours at the JF Ward Funeral Home, 772 Broadway, Everett, on Wednesday, April 20 ^th , from 4-8 pm. A funeral service will be held on Thursday, April 21 ^st , in the funeral home at 10 am.
