Visit the Bonners Ferry Funeral Home website to view the full obituary.

Louis William Michalk, III passed away Friday night, October 17, from lung cancer. Louie’s favorite pastime was wearing the “I Love Jesus” shirts and hats that he designed and talking to everyone he could about his love of Jesus.

Louie is described by all who knew him as one of the kindest, gentlest souls who would give anyone the shirt off of his back. Louie had an infectious laugh and loved to make people smile.

He is preceded in death by his mother, Patricia Bable. He leaves behind his son, Louis Michalk, IV (Sam) of Bonners Ferry, his grandson August Michalk of Bonners Ferry, his twin sisters Heather Watson of Lawrence, Kansas and Heidi Stockton of Bonners Ferry, brother James Michalk of Meridian, Idaho, and best friend Dominic Colis of Bonners Ferry.

He was loved. He will be missed.

Arrangements are being care for privately.

To plant trees in memory, please visit the Sympathy Store.
