Born in Thorhild, Alberta, Mike came to Port Alberni in 1958 looking for work on the pipeline at Great Central Lake.

When not working, Mike stayed active playing with his metal detector, wood working, fishing, camping and floor curling as well as walking and hiking. Most of all, Mike enjoyed fishing with his sons, whether it be steelhead or saltwater and being around his grandchildren, especially when they were babies, they were all "…his favourites…"
