Mike loved his family. At a young age he took pride in helping care for his siblings. He was always quick to tell you how much he loved his wife and kids. His love and dedication to his family was second to none and honestly his world revolved around them. Countless hours were spent with his children and grandchildren making sure they understood how important they were as individuals and especially to him.
Mike was a hard-working salt of the earth man that enjoyed being a plumber. Through the many years in his profession, he developed many lifelong friendships that meant a great deal to him.
Mike enjoyed people. Having a strong personality and the gift of gab he was always in deep conversation with someone. Outdoors was his favorite place to be. He was an avid hunter and fisherman that also loved sitting around a campfire, laughing and sharing stories.
Today Mike has received his complete healing and is rejoicing with his lord and many loved ones that have gone before him. The family would like to express appreciation for the many visits, calls and prayers for him and his family.
Pallbearers include Will, Wyatt, Brody, Mason, Garrett and Mathew.
