If you knew Mike, you know he was truly one of a kind. He could fill a room with laughter, and always had endless stories to tell. He often said he was going to write a book one day. Anyone who knew him knows it would have been one unforgettable story.
Mike loved hunting, especially when he could share those moments outdoors with his daughter. He took great pride in his work and found joy in the simple things - like tending to his firewood stand, and watching sports with his fiancé.
Per his wishes, there will be no formal service. He will be cremated, and a celebration of his life will be held at a later date.
Mike’s big heart, humor, and spirit will live on in everyone who had the privilege of knowing him. He will be deeply missed and forever loved.
