Mike retired from Ford Motor Company after 30 years of proud dedication. He was an extremely talented designer, mechanic, painter and detailer. Not many people left his house without a good “Mike Schieb” wax detailing that made their car look like a million bucks! He was a lover of Mopar and every aspect of classic cars. He enjoyed car shows and the annual Harper Cruise was always his favorite to attend. Mike has built model cars since he was a child and had an extensive model car and memorabilia collection. He was also an animal lover and dearly loved his dogs, Jack and Ginger. Mike will be missed by many friends and family.
