Michael "Mike" Fitzpatrick (June 28, 1963 &ndash January 6, 2020) was a U.S. Representative from his native Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, who represented the suburban 8th congressional district for one term (2005-2007), after being narrowly defeated by Democrat Patrick Murphy. Fitzpatrick, however, defeated Murphy for his former seat in a rematch in 2010 and served until January 3, 2017.
Fitzpatrick did not run in 2016, and was succeeded by his brother, Brian Fitzpatrick, who still hold the 8th District seat.
Fitzpatrick died at the age of fifth-six after a long battle with melanoma.[1]
