He is survived by his beloved wife of 50 years, Bonnie, son Michael, and daughter Stormy Vance. He is also survived by four grandchildren, Lily Dickinson, Wes Dickinson, Park Schweinefus, and Stephen Collins.
Mike built authentic, lasting relationships. The company he founded, Morehouse Management Group, Inc. launched new careers for his clients. Mike was always there when anyone needed him. He brought out the best in everyone he encountered.
Mike was a larger-than-life figure and loved by many. Those who knew and loved him are full of stories, from hilarious to heartwarming. He lit up every space he entered. Mike always had time for everyone. Fearless, he could do anything. He was an artist, drummer, biker, big-rig driver, lumberjack, diesel mechanic, hot air balloon pilot, bank executive and entrepreneur, just to scratch the surface. Most importantly, Mike was a devoted husband and father.
His absence is beyond comprehension, but he has left us all better for having lived a life with him in it.
