William Michael “Uncle Mike” Cochran was born on August 29, 1940 to Raymond and Edna Cochran. He had a terrific sense of humor and wasn’t afraid to be the punch line of his own jokes. He loved making people laugh everywhere he went. If you met him, you didn’t forget him. Mike was an uncle to so many more people than to just his blood relations. On February 20, 2017, he left this world to be reunited with his wife, Nancy Cochran; mother, Edna Cochran; father, Raymond Cochran; and brother, Jim Cochran. He left behind 2 siblings, Raymond “Pat” Cochran and Linda Cochran; and nieces and nephews, Alexandra Arseneau, Patrick Cochran, Steve Cochran, Thomas Cochran, Vickie Pfannenstiel, Christie Ellis and Craig Pokaluk. Mike also had many great & great-great nieces and nephews who absolutely adored him. Mike’s final wishes were to have his ashes laid to rest with his beloved wife and his loved ones to concentrate on celebrating his life. In honoring his wishes, there will be a Celebration of Life party for his immediate family with no formal service. His request was for everyone to share a good memory and have a great laugh.
