Mike was a member of Becker American Legion Post #193. He worked at Elk River Cretex for over 40 years. He enjoyed hunting, fishing, going to the casino and watching the Vikings, NASCAR, and old westerns on TV.

Mike is survived by his wife, Peggy of Becker; daughter, Jackie Weir of Rogers; son, Jim (Denise) Weir of Becker; grandkids, Ronni and Poppi Weir of Becker; and many relatives and friends. He was preceded in death by his parents; brother, John Weir; and in-laws, Earl and Josephine Ouellette.
