Mike joined the Heritage Cooperative family through The Farmers Commission

community in Hardin County for over 25½ years. He held the position of
Ada Grain Plant Superintendent at the time of his passing. Out of respect
and in honor of Mike, the Ada and Alger branches were closed the day of
his funeral so that fellow employees could be in attendance and support his
family in their time of need.

The Heritage Cooperative family of employees expresses our deepest
sympathy to Mike’s family, friends and his customers.
