Mike Decker

| October 25, 2016 9:47 AM

Mike Decker, former longtime Libby resident, relocated to Sussex, Wisconsin in 2008. Mike passed away unexpectedly at his home there and will be missed by many.

In Libby and in Sussex, Michael was Pam Wood’s dearest friend and her loving memory of him will always be cherished. Mike was a man of many talents and ‘wore many hats’ — radio announcer and DJ, musician and photographer with an artistic eye. One of his fond memories was his trip to Wimbledon, England to be best man and photographer at the wedding of his friend Jerry and wife Annette Sather.

Mike was always willing to help friends with any projects. And to the residents of his Wisconsin community he was the ‘go to guy’, whether it be running errands or helping take care of pets.

The many kind postings on Facebook were evidence of his wide reach. Among those who will miss him are his sisters Wendy and Sydnie, brother Geoffrey, and many nieces, nephews and cousins as well as dear friends, the Roger Robertson family. Mike was preceded in death by his parents, Charles M. (Big Mike) and Evelyn I. Decker. Please remember Mike with a smile, a laugh, or a shake of the head, for he was a unique man and will be missed. As we are saying, “There he goes,” others are saying, “Here he comes!”

Deceased’s funeral arrangements : A memorial service for Mike will be held at a later time. A notice will be posted with details. Thanks for all the kind friends who sent cards and the words of caring on Facebook.
