Έφυγε την Παρασκευή 04-12-2020 από την ζωή σε ηλικία 87 ετών ο συμπατριώτης μας Μιχάλης Βλαχούλης στο Μπράντφορντ της Μασαχουσέτης.
Γεννημένος στις 10 Ιανουαρίου του 1933 γιος του αειμνήστου Νικολάου και της Κούλας Νταβάρα
Ο εκλιπών είχε μεταναστεύσει στις ΗΠΑ το 1951 με τέσσερα αδέλφια του και την χήρα μητέρα του.
Εκεί εργάστηκε με τα αδέλφια του για αρκετά χρόνια στην εταιρία υποδημάτων του Θειου του Γιώργου και αργότερα ακλούθησε τον μεγάλο του αδελφό Γιάννη και έγινε κομμωτής.
Ο εκλιπών διατηρούσε άσβεστη την αγάπη για την πατρίδα μας και ιδιαίτερα για την Σαμαρίνα την οποία κουβαλούσε πάντα μέσα του.Μαλιστα η ασπρόμαυρη φωτογραφία που δημοσιεύουμε είναι τραβηγμένη στην Σαμαρίνα.
Θερμά Συλλυπητήρια στους οικείους του Καλό Παράδεισο.

He was born on January 10, 1933 in Grevena, Greece, son of the late Nicholas and Koula (Davaras) Valhouli.
Michael emigrated to the United States in 1951 with his four brothers and widowed mother. Their uncle George Valhouli, owned the Lincoln Shoe Company in Haverhill, MA where, along with his older brothers, Michael worked for several years.
