Michael R. Yoch

I knew Mike thru our interest in old trucks and our friendship went from exchanging emails to visits when we would travel to the St. Louis area. Mike was the type of person that made everyone feel welcome and he could have a conversation about anything with anyone! I will miss our occasional conversations with one awesome guy!

My condolences Karen to you and the boys.

Karen I am so sorry for your lose, I knew Mike and his family for many many years, when we were younger he used to help on our family farm, Mike was a good guy and will be missed, sorry for not staying in touch more, but we always think maybe tomorrow, and sometimes there is no tomorrow, prayers are with you and your family in your time of sorrow

Please accept our deepest sympathies.

Many years ago when I was away at college, my parents went to Lambert to meet my flight home. As we waited for my luggage, my father struck up a conversation with a nice young man in a naval uniform. He didn't yet have a ride home to Smithton, and since we were going to rural Millstadt, we gave Mike a ride home. Our paths crossed a time or two over the next few years, and I always remembered Mike as a fine, good person. Rest in peace, Mike. My sincere condolences to your family.`
