Our cherished brother, uncle and friend left this world peacefully in his home on November 15th after 35 years of disability due to a tragic accident.

Mike was born the third child of Margaret and Victor Decker in Saint George Utah. Mike suffered a traumatic brain injury in 1983 at the age of 15.

Mike received his High School diploma from Dixie High School. Mike loved animals and especially dogs. His favorite dog was Rambo. He loved cleaning up trash and leaves in the community. He spent lots of time on his 3 wheel bike. He also loved his horses Fred and Midgie and participating in 4-H.

Mike was active in the church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. He loved the scouting program, was a staff member at Thunder Ridge and helped build the Decker trading post (named after David). He received his eagle award and became a Vigil in the Order of the Arrow. He also served as service missionary in the Spanish Fork Bishop Storehouse (1992-1993). Mike was an active member of the Bloomington 4th Ward and loved to go to church.

Mike loved to participate in the Special Needs Olympics and had a competitive spirit. He brought home many metals in skiing, bowling and track. He also loved attending the special needs mutual program and the Dixie Advantages Day program.

Mikes infectious smile radiated the pure love of Christ. Mike was fortunate to be cared for at home with the help of his family. His angel mother Margaret, Sheri, Jennette and for the past 12 years Bruce. Bruce dedicated his life lovingly caring for Mike. Mike endured this life well and now has his perfect eternal body.
