Michael Deane Mullins, 65, died at his home on April 7, 2020 after a lengthy illness.
He was born March 26, 1955 in Lincoln, Nebraska to the Rev. James O. and Maida Lee (Jensen) Mullins. He and his brother, Jim, grew up in Glenrock, Wyoming and Sterling, Colorado. In 1972, the family moved to Kearney, and Michael graduated from Kearney High School in 1974.
Michael met Gail McCammon when the new McDonald’s restaurant opened in 1973. Gail asked Michael to drive her home one night after their shift, and they dated throughout high school. They married one week after Gail’s graduation, on May 25, 1975, and would have celebrated their 45th wedding anniversary this year.
Michael worked as Night Manager of the Ramada Inn in Ogallala after their marriage, and after moving back to Kearney, he worked at Gambles for many years, Killion Motors, and Builders Warehouse. He then owned Accent on Travel for several years, and managed Recognition Unlimited after the travel business closed.
Michael and Gail enjoyed traveling until his health no longer allowed them to do so. They especially enjoyed New Orleans. He enjoyed spending time at home with their three dogs.
