Mike nurtured under the loving care of his family and loved each and every one of his nieces and nephews. He brought a lot of joy to his family and was loving and sharing in anything that he did. As a youngster, Mike loved to go roller skating. He was no stranger as he enjoyed walking and could be seen most days walking around Kahoka. One of his joys was going to Cookie’s each day to drink water and tea and on Fridays, eat fish. He had his special place to sit there and spend an hour or so each day.

He was a faithful member of Trinity Worship Center and loved going to church and listening to gospel music. In addition to walking, he also loved to go fishing and deer hunting.

Graveside services will be held Thursday, April 5, 2018 at 10 a.m. at the National Cemetery in Keokuk, IA.
