Michael, 55 years old, passed away suddenly in his home on Sunday, September 21, 2025. He was a Colorado native.
Mike worked in sales management for the copier industry for many years. He received an Associate of Applied Science degree in Marketing Management from Pikes Peak Community College.
He is survived by his two sons, Michael and Jacob; his siblings, Doris and John; and his nephew, Troy. He is preceded in death by his parents, John and Klothilde.
Mike enjoyed many activities over the years: motorcycle trail riding, snowboarding, camping, and just enjoying the mountains. He was a very kind and caring person, a good dad and will be very much missed.
We remember Michael as a very kind and friendly person and we will always keep him in our hearts.
We send our condolences to Doris, Johnny, Troy, Michael jun., and Jacob.
Our thoughts are always with you, especially in this very difficult time.

Mike… you were a WONDERFUL friend and we had many great times for 30+ years. I will always remember you and the great times we had. You ALWAYS had that smile that lit up the room, it was unmeasurable. I will miss you my friend. Love you forever.
I’ve been friends with Mike since elementary school, and he stood for me at my wedding, a true friend through the years. We shared so many good times growing up, and he was always a lot of fun to be around. We were roommates at one time, traveled together, and worked together at the lawn service, which brought even more great memories. His humor, friendship, and spirit will be deeply missed. Thinking of his family during this difficult time and sending my heartfelt condolences.
I was fortunate to know Mike back in high school, where we shared German class together and many laughs. Years later, I had the pleasure of reconnecting with him when I dated and married Brent. He had a great sense of humor, always dressed sharp, and had a natural charm that made him truly memorable. Mike came to a couple of our Halloween parties, showing up in the funniest costumes. My favorite was when he dressed as Crockett with Andre as Tubbs from Miami Vice and they hammed it up. I think many would agree, when you think of Miami Vice, you can’t help but think of Mike. He will be remembered fondly. May he rest in peace. My deepest sympathies go out to his family during this difficult time.
The news of Michael’s sudden death was very shocking.
Our deepest condolences go out to Doris, Johnny, Troy, Michael jun., and Jacob.
We deeply regret your loss.
In these painful hours, our thoughts are with you.
We also will keep Michael in our hearts.
Many kind regards from Germany – Berchig.
