Born April 6, 1955 passed away at Lions Gate Hospital November 24, 2022
It is with a heavy heart we say goodbye to Mike. He will be missed by wife Maureen, together 45 years, and his devoted son Brad. He was preceded by parents Jim & Ruth, brothers Rick and Don. He will be missed by nieces Cathleena (Dave), Desiree (Alex) their children and sister-in-law Jane.
Mike's family moved from Burnaby to the North Shore when he was 8 years old. He attended Maplewood and Seymour Heights Elementary schools, then attended Windsor Secondary and on to SFU where he earned a degree in Geography. He was employed with B.C. Packers (Rupert Brand Seafoods) then was hired by Albion Fisheries where he worked as a Purchasing Manager until he retired in 2005. Mike spent 6 months backpacking through Australia, New Zealand and South East Asia as a young man. During later years he enjoyed many wonderful trips. A home was purchased in Bermuda Dunes CA where winters were spent enjoying many rounds of golf. Over the years several race horses where owned, sports, gardening as well as family and friends gave Mike much enjoyment.
Although we are heartbroken, our memories of his love, dry sense of humour and kindness will forever be with us.
A Celebration of Life will be held next summer.
In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to New Stride Thoroughbred Adoption Society.
