Michael Adelson Obituary

Obituary published on Legacy.com by Spooner Funeral Home on Jul. 10, 2025.

Publish in a newspaper

Those who knew Mike know he would describe himself as reserved and introverted, just a man trying to live a peaceful life. However, those who truly knew Mike would describe him as a man of integrity and honor, the most talented, unwavering, resilient, kind, and humble son, father, husband, brother, grandfather, uncle, friend, and teammate. Mike's generosity knew no bounds, and in true Mike fashion, he never wanted any recognition or favor paid in return. His personal accomplishments - of which he would never tell you himself - speak to the content of his character and his desire to put those he loved before himself. What he gave to the world will live on in the hearts of his wife, children, grandchildren, sister, extended family, and the countless friendships he cherished.
"Wealth is not the amount of money that one has but is the peace and contentment one finds within his family." - Michael Adelson
Outdoor celebration of life at the home of Mike and his wife, Stephanie Marshall.
