Michael Brandon Muir

Michael was born on Aug. 21, 1983 in Rock Springs, Wyoming, to Traci Leith and Jerry Muir. He was a graduate of Manila High School in Manila, Utah. He was employed at Natural Soda and his coworkers were like family.

Michael was an avid sports fan, he loved his New York Yankees, North Carolina Tar Heels and Carolina Panthers. Baseball games were his favorite.

Michael had an amazing sense of humor. He loved pranking people, especially Heather and his coworkers, just to make them laugh. He was passionate about working out, and fishing, his favorite thing to do. He loved helping people, especially the homeless and less fortunate. He loved his boys, they made him very proud. He loved life.

Michael is survived by his wife, Heather, who he loved immensely, they were truly soulmates; sons Austin Muir, 18 and Tyson Muir, 16; Chelsea Davis, the mother of his children, all of Mountain View, Wyoming; father Jerry Muir of Manila, Utah; brothers Dylan (Shanette) Muir and Joey Muir, both of Meeker, Colorado; father-in-law Charles Pierce of Nashville, Tennessee; he also leaves behind three nephews: Sylas Muir, Mason Muir and Ryett Muir.

A notable mention to his crew and the five guys who meant the world to him, and he loved dearly.
