On February 5, Mike unexpectedly passed away at only 40 years old. He was a son, brother, father, grandfather, uncle, cousin, and friend who will be greatly missed.

If you were lucky enough to experience Mike in any capacity, you know how caring and loving he was. He knew how to brighten anyone’s day and always found positive in any situation. He held the blvd on his back and was someone we could all count on when we needed him. Mike was the light in so many lives, let’s keep his flame burning during these difficult times.

Many of you may already know me but if not I am Alex, Merrill’s best friend and was a close friend to Mike and his family. I am starting this to help Mike’s family with the cost of the funeral expenses. Any remaining funds will go towards the care for the beautiful children he was blessed with.

Please consider donating if you can, as any amount will truly help.

Wake and funeral details will be shared from the family directly.
