Michael Stiles Obituary

Published by Legacy Remembers on Feb. 11, 2025.
Michael Grant Stiles passed away on February 7, 2025, in Pueblo, Colorado. Born on October 24, 1959, in Pueblo, Michael spent his life dedicated to both his profession and personal passions.

Michael built a distinguished career spanning 31 years as a clinical therapist, and as a supervisor of the high-security forensic building at Colorado Mental Health Institute (Pueblo). His dedication to helping others was evident throughout his professional life. In addition to his work in therapy, Michael was also the owner and operator of Shake Handlers Roofing, demonstrating his entrepreneurial spirit and commitment to hard work.

Beyond his career, Michael had a deep love for the outdoors and recreation. He was the proud owner of Stiles Landing campground at Blue Mesa Reservoir, a place that reflected his passion for nature and community. He loved camping, fishing, hunting, golfing, bowling, and enjoying the thrill of numerous games of chance and being a Referee for High School Football. Michael embraced life with enthusiasm and adventure. He was also a compassionate, generous and caring friend, often calling friends and family just to see how they were doing.

Michael is survived by his wife, Jan; brothers Patrick Stiles, Dennis Moore, and Sean Stiles; sister Gail Watt; and in-laws Robin Engram and Russ Taravella. He is predeceased by his mother, JoAnne Siebenaller (Stiles), and father, Dorwin Stiles brother, Sterling Stiles and his beloved in-laws Charles and Kay Engram.

Michael's memory will live on in the hearts of those who knew him. May his legacy bring comfort to all who shared in his journey.

The memorial will be held at Praise Assembly of God, 2000 Troy Ave, Pueblo, CO 81001 on February 27, 2025 at 10:00 AM

This was taken the morning of the last time I fished w Mike. We were on the Kenai River up near Skilak Lake trolling for sockeye. It was just myself, Stiles and a friend of his, the banter was top shelf, the company unmatched. I will miss you my friend.

We are so sorry Jan to hear this. Paul has so many wonderful memories of Mike and can't express them at this time but I never had so much fun as when we were in Vegas with you guys. We will miss him so very much. Every time Mike would call I would smile when I answered and in his deep voice just say " Hey Babe" Paul told me how he had just seen you both at the store. We are both sending all our prayers for God's comfort to you & your familes. He will be greatly missed.

I played in one of my very first golf tournaments with Mike and our good friend Paul Pavlich. One of the most fun tournaments I´ve ever played in. Every time I saw Mike he would remind me of how much fun we had. So many other good memories, but that one stands out most in my mind. He will truly be missed by so many people.
