Mike Bender, an Astoria, OR resident for 50+ years, tragically passed away. He leaves behind a brother, niece, nephews, and his beloved cat, Sasha Marie. Mike worked at the Astoria Safeway, alongside some of his longtime high school friends. Mike loved the outdoors, mining for gold, his family, and the Dallas Cowboys!

Mike lived a simple, honest life and was a kind human with a big heart. We would love to have a memorial and funeral for Mike. Please help us raise money to help place him to rest. Astoria will miss him.
