He attended Moorhead Technical College and received a degree in carpentry in 1978. Michael later moved to Omaha, Neb., and worked as a diesel mechanic. From there he moved to Denver, Colo., and worked with his brother, Pat. Mike and Pat were certified diesel mechanics and were considered the best in their field in the Denver metro area. Many trucking firms requested their expertise.
In 1998, Mike moved back home to Minnesota and worked for Klein Farms near Breckenridge. There he operated a custom combing crew every summer, from Texas up to the Dakotas. Mike was a very diligent worker and took pride in everything he did.
Mike enjoyed hunting with his family and friends. He was interested in astronomy and the space shuttle missions and had numerous collectable books. He loved to watch the History channel, National Geographic and Discovery. His greatest passion was his work. He enjoyed getting in his truck and hauling John Deere equipment.
