Michael Herman Natzke, lovingly known as Uncle Mikey, was born on September 18th, 1953 to Irvin & Ilene Natzke, & passed away unexpectedly on March 5th, 2021. He was truly one of a kind. He touched the hearts of everyone he met & was loved by so many. All of his nieces & nephews were a huge part of his life, he was actually a great-great uncle. But beyond that even, every friend of the family he met knew him as Uncle Mike. He was a diehard Michigan fan, along with the rest of the family. Everyone who knew him, knew he was drinking a beer, & depending on how the game was going, yelling at the TV. He is survived by his long-extended family, including: 2 brothers & 1 sister, 21 nieces & nephews, 23 great nieces & nephews, & 12 great-great nieces & nephews. He will truly be missed. We love you Uncle Mikey, whole bunches & bunches.
