Michael worked at Chino mines for many years, but had a business in the Mobile Home industry.  If you have a mobile home, then you know the ALDERETTE name, and if not, that means you hired the rest not the BEST. He actually took and carried the business on from his dad Dan ALDERETTE whom used to move homes also. Michael turned ALDERETTE into a well- known and respected name with the blood and sweat of his own two hands, which he has passed down to the next generation. 

He literally was a legend in his own time. You never met a person, who didn't have an ALDERETTE story. His humor was like no other. He was very well known and loved in what he called "his town". He loved working side by side his family. He loved his music. He loved his McDonald's coffee with 2 creamers, his gold cross and of course his fedora hat(derby), but the ONE love of his life was and always will be (HUN) Mary. Michael will be dearly missed by many, but we all know that he has now found peace and rest at last....his last words after every conversation with his family (well the one I can print) was GOODNIGHT, GOD BLESS, I LOVE YOU.
