MICHAEL CRUSON Obituary
Michael Rodney Cruson, beloved Husband, Father, Son and Brother passed away on February 15, 2016.
He is survived by his Wife Wendy, Sons Richard and Michael, Mother Maurine, and Brothers Don, Neil and Paul.
Michael was lovingly known to his 6 Grandchildren as Papa.
He was born in Longview Washington, but moved to Bellingham at the age of 11.
He retired in 2014 from UPS where he worked as a delivery driver out of the Burlington center. He served 5 years with the Coast Guard Auxiliary with most all of his patrols worked on his Uncle Don's boat the Sea Ranger.
His interest varied from working on cars, building computers, to gazing at the stars. He especially liked to help others as much as he could. He loved playing with his grandchildren, but it usually involved some kind of a gadget, which he had several.
He loved all of his family and friends with a heart that was filled with more than enough love for all. His smile was infectious and he will be missed by many.
There will be a celebration of life for Michael on Sunday, February 28th at Zuanich Park in Bellingham from 10 am to 2 pm. Please think of a story you would like to share or write in a Memorial book which will be available.
