Mike will be lovingly remembered by his daughter Lilah; parents Mirjana & Andelko; brother Matthew; sister Daniela (Daniel, Marko, Raquel, Annabel); Krista, Elissa; Schmidt family; as well as extended family and friends.
Mike was born on August 27, 1977 in Vancouver, BC and resided in Burnaby, BC throughout his life. As a child he played soccer as well as hockey, and was known for his smile. He graduated from Burnaby South Secondary School, where he met life long friends. Mike enjoyed working outside and welcomed hard work. Those who knew Mike will miss his kindness, generosity, and comedic nature. Most of all his love for his daughter, the light of his life, lit up the room and will forever be in our hearts.
