Michael LaDouceur Obituary
Michael was born to Darrell A. and Jule J. LaDouceur on October 10, 1962, in Brainerd, MN.
He enjoyed racing, hunting, camping, snowmobiling, listening to music, and spending time with his family and friends. Mike was a patient and loving person who always cared more about others than himself. He was always there for his family and friends when they needed him.
He was employed for 11 years at Anderson Brothers Construction and before that he was an over-the-road trucker for over 25 years.
Michael is survived by his wife, Renee; sons Casey (Brittany) and Chase; grandchildren Braelynn, Lainey, and Jax; parents Darrell A. (Linda) LaDouceur and Jule LaDouceur; siblings Jodi Ingram (Jesse) of Arkansas, Sheri Lapinoja of Brainerd, Jamie (Brenda) LaDouceur of Little Falls; step-brother Darrell E. LaDouceur of Minnesota; and many many nieces, nephews, and cousins. He will be greatly missed by all who knew him.
He is preceded in death by his grandparents Clarence and Evelyn Erickson, and grandparents Allen and Eleanor LaDouceur.
Arrangements are entrusted to Halvorson-Taylor Funeral Home, Brainerd.
