While doing the lights and sound at a concert he met his first wife, Susan Rubick. They proceeded to have 2 daughters, Lisa and Amy.

His second marriage was New Years’ Eve in 1993 to Hali Passono, which added a step-daughter Amanda to his family. He They moved to Garnett, KS then to Florida, they came back to Topeka to be closer to their grandkids. They were married until 2021, when he was widowed.

He was blessed with many grandchildren: Vanessa, Tucker, Diamond, Bishop, Emerald, Jasper, Eliza, Nora, & Raiden.  

When computers came into existence he was completely obsessed. From pong on atari, to macintoshs, then to building and repairing personal computers to working as a computer analyst. The entire computer community knew him as DocPuter for decades. His lack of online presence will be felt around the world.  

His snarky sense of humor was only rivaled by his love of KU and the KC Chiefs. He was also the ultimate trekkie, he’s loved every single episode and movie through the decades.

Goodbye Mike, may you Live Long and Prosper.
