Passed away on July 22, 2023 at the North Bay Regional Health Centre the day before his 70th birthday.
Mike leaves behind his common law wife, Ruth Anderson, her children Tim, Troy and Tammy Anderson (predeceased) as well as his two sons, Michael and Cory. Mike also leaves behind 4 granddaughters, 2 grandsons and their first great grandson who was coming in just a week to meet the family.
Mike spent most of his time at his home away from home, his camp at Blue Lake. Mike loved to fish, hunt, fix things, tinker at camp, ride his ATV and spend as much time as possible in the bush. Only the people close to Mike truly understood his love for the outdoors and his camp.
Ruth and family would like to thank Mike’s good friend’s Orville Renaud, Brian (6 pack) Haggar, and Joe Cook. The family would also like to send a big heartfelt thank you to the paramedics, doctors, nurses and everyone else that played a big part in Mike’s final months with us.
As per Mike’s wishes, there will be no funeral service. Cremation has taken place. At a later date, for the last time, family will take that ride back to the bush and bring Mike back to his favourite place, his camp at Blue.
