He attended Colton High School. He enlisted in the U.S. Navy during the Vietnam War and served four years before being honorably discharged. After he returned stateside, he met Penny McArthur and the couple married on April 15, 1978. Early in their marriage, they lived around eastern Washington, including Othello, Richland and Walla Walla, before settling down in Lewiston. They later separated. Mike was a mechanic and truck driver and was not afraid to get his hands dirty. He enjoyed fishing and camping as well as spending time with his family. He was a truly amazing man who put others before himself. He will be missed by all who knew him. Mike is survived by his mother, Margaret; children Catrina, Crystal, Robert, and Caleb; Caleb's mother, Shana; and five stepchildren, Noah, Amarea, Shyann, Micah and Rhyan; siblings Mary, Walt, Cathrine, Otto and Betsy; as well as 11 grandchildren. He was preceded in death by his father. Memorial contributions in Mike's honor are suggested to the Albion Fire Department or to a charity of choice. The family wishes to express its sincere appreciation to the members of the Albion Fire Department and Pullman Regional Hospital for their prompt, efficient and genuine care rendered on Christmas Day.
