Ric Mike Obituary
Ric Mike, age 73, of Mendota Heights, Minnesota, passed away peacefully on August 15, 2025 with family by his side. Ric enjoyed life and made the most of it. He was always on the go with family and friends and was an avid skier, tennis player, bicyclist and golfer. He made a mean vegetable tray for the annual family and friends Christmas Eve Party, held at his home for many years and was known to be somewhat of a wise guy.
Ric was preceded in death by his parents Fred and Loraine Mike and is survived by his sisters, Linda Mike, Kathleen Bauer, Marlene Scott, Deborah Eilers (Jim), Barbara Duncan (Dave), Roberta Mike; brother Tom Mike (Georgia); special friend Patti Cullen; and many nieces, nephews, and cousins.
Ric was much loved and will be greatly missed. A celebration of life is being planned for a future date. Memorial donations may be made to The Raptor Center of Minnesota or Minnesota Public Radio.
