Michael "Mike" Meier Obituary

Published by Legacy Remembers on May 29, 2024.
Michael "Mike" Meier, one of the finest men to come out of Rock Creek Township, Indiana passed on to the next great adventure on May 28th, 2024, from his home in Sodus, Michigan. Mike's loved ones fondly look back on his seventy-six earthly years marked by his authentic kindness, quickness to laugh, playfulness, eagerness to lend a helping hand, and love for his family. Mike had a gift for fixing anything from naval aircraft to small engines to broken toys. He was an avid fisherman who enjoyed traveling and his curious nature inspired him to travel all over North America. He would gladly discuss religion, money, and especially politics with anyone daring enough to engage in such conversations. Mike is deeply missed by his wife of 51 years, Belinda (nee Nelson), his adoring daughters, Cassie (Kyle) Dworchak and Trina (Brian) Unverzagt, and his beloved grandchildren: Tyler, Dylan, Nolan, Gavin, and Abigail. Mike also leaves behind four brothers: Ron (Diana) Meier, Bob (Dalpha) Meier, Dave (Jacqueline) Meier, and Jim Meier along with a host of nieces, nephews, cousins, and other loved ones. A gathering in Mike's honor will be held on July 13, 2024, with details to follow. In the meantime, please honor his life by living well. Go fishing, enjoy ice cream, plant a tree, make someone laugh, play with your kids and grandkids, relax on the porch; and if your dad is still around, give him a call.

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

Sending warm hugs and love to Belinda, Cassie, Trina and all the Meier family. Mike is going to be so missed. He was my cousin by blood but my big brother in my heart. His laugh his joy of life. He was one of my favorite people. Reminded me so much of my dad. Mike used to take me fishing when I was a kid and baited my hook I rowed the boat. He teased me like crazy but I took that as a sign he liked me. I will miss you dear cousin. I hope the fishing is good in Heaven say hi to my parents for me. They will be happy but sad at the same time to see you. Love you cuz

Mike was my best friend as both of us grew up on farms in rural Indiana in Rock Creek Township about a mile from each other. We went to Rock Creek High School. We hunted rabbits, squirrels, and mushrooms together. He had a Honda 150 motorcycle and I rode a 1947 Harley Davidson. Many fond memories of riding together. During our junior year of high school, I extended to him the opportunity of "double-dating." Without going into details, had he not accepted, I would not have met my wife, with whom we will be celebrating our 55th wedding anniversary this year.
Our deepest sympathies and condolences are extended to Belinda and her family.
