Michael was an avid golfer, enjoyed fishing, spending time in the mountains, cooking, and being with family. He loved a good joke and was an amazing story teller. He was a devoted Broncos fan and attended many games with family and friends. He loved country music, especially Bluegrass.
One of his most meaningful roles in life was being a Grandfather and was admired as the "baby whisperer" of the family. As a dad, he was adored by his children and would drop anything to be there for them. His wife Barbara was the love of his life and he spent 44 years making their life together beautiful. Later in life, Michael and Barbara enjoyed traveling to tropical destinations and enjoying the outdoors on their bikes. He was a great example of a godly husband, father, brother, and friend and his legacy will live on through his family.
Michael is preceded in death by his mother Reva Nelson; brothers Daniel Nelson and Kerry Nelson. He is survived by his wife Barbara, his children, eight grandchildren and two great-grandchildren; brothers, several nieces, nephews, and other relatives and friends.
