Michael Ellwood Obituary

Michael Joseph Ellwood passed away unexpectedly on August 27th, 2022. He was born on April 21st, 1964 in Boulder Colorado to Margaret (Lee) and William Ellwood. He attended Flatirons Elementary, Baseline Jr High and Boulder High. In 1982, Mike met his wife Margaret, or Margy to some, while attending CSU. They married in 1988 and have three wonderful boys and currently two furry golden retrievers. Mike and Margy have shared many wonderful adventures over the years with their boys, Charlie, Sam, and Max. Mike made friends with everyone he met, young and old. Either you were a friend, or you were a friend he just hadn't met yet. Mike will be missed by more people than he ever realized. He had no idea how many lives he had touched just by crossing their paths. A more complete obituary and information regarding services will be published in the next few weeks.

Hi Margy,
It´s been a long time since I have talked to you. Until now I didn´t know that Mike was missing. I know how you feel. May 1st will be the 3-year anniversary of Susan´s passing. We both know what a reset it requires when we lose our soul mate. We can be thankful for all our great memories. We just have to accept the reality that life will never be the same. I believe that time does heal and that the sun will shine again. Be happy.
