Michael M. Missler

Michael M. "Mike" Missler, 53, of Findlay, passed away peacefully Wednesday, July 3, 2024, at Bridge Hospice Care Center, Findlay, from an unexpected illness.

Throughout his 32-day journey in the ICU at Mercy Health - St. Vincent Medical Center, Toledo, and in hospice, he was surrounded by loved ones who will honor his life by living to the fullest each and every day.

Mike is survived by his wife, Melanie, and is the proud father of four amazing children, Aaron, Allison, Brady, and Madison. He was blessed to be called "G-Pops" by four beautiful grandchildren, Elliott, Graycen, Ruben Jr., and Nova. Mike is also survived by seven siblings. He had a very loving and supportive family throughout his whole life.

He was preceded in death by his parents, Marvin and Shirley Missler; beloved uncle, Jim Jacobs; and adored cousin, Paige Jacobs.

Mike grew up in Bellevue and graduated from Bellevue High School in 1990. He worked for Miller Pipeline.

He enjoyed golfing, fishing, playing cornhole, playing with his grandchildren, grilling, and cook outs with his family. He also loved attending sporting events and coaching his children's baseball and softball teams. He was a loyal Dallas Cowboys, Cleveland Indians, and Ohio State fan.

Mike will be missed on the yearly fishing trip to Biscotasing, Canada, that the men in his family have gone on for the last 55 years. His cousins, Dan Jacobs, Greg Jacobs, and Matt Missler, were truly his brothers throughout his whole life. Mike's aunt, Violet (Vi) Jacobs, was also his second mom.

Mike touched everyone he knew with either his tender heart or sarcastic sense of humor. He will be missed by all that knew and loved him.
