I’m heartbroken. He was such a nice person and neighbor. I know he’s with the Lord and is free of pain and his spirit will always be with us.

So sorry for your loss Kathy. I didn’t realize he was even sick;) I lost my mom in September. I’ve been dealing with all her affairs since then. Thinking of you and your family Jackie

It was so nice to reconnect with your family during Mikes last weeks. I’ve always remembered Mike as being kind and soft spoken. I’m sorry for your loss but knowing he’s free of pain with Jesus brings comfort! Sending big hugs to you all💖

Kathy and I were little kids in the same neighborhood ...... never met Michael, but sending heartfelt wishes for peace to my old friend from the days when where we lived was seriously out in the country. Hugs to you Kathy.

Mike Koets has been our dear friend for over 54 years. So many rich memories of sharing family vacations, hikes, Isle Royal and church work and missions with this dear, dear man. We stood by Kath and family during his illness willing Mike to survive. Now we have to learn to go on without him, still supporting Kath and family. He's a missing piece in our hearts. His love for the Lord, his family and friends will hold us up, though, until we meet again. Shauna and Denny Collison
