Mike was a family man and lover of the outdoors. On any given weekend you would find him on the ranch cutting wood and barbecuing with lifelong friends and family. His passion was hunting. He shared his knowledge and days hunting with his boys, grandboys and friends and family. He took many big bucks in Colorado and California. Mostly local at Peachy Canyon Buck Camp.
His children and grandchildren were his life. He shared 18 years with Brande as a teammate and in marriage.
SLO County will not find a better butcher who knew the old ways and traditions he luckily passed on to his boys.
He will be so missed and loved by so many!
