2A THE DAILY ASTORIAN • WEDNESDAY, MAY 31, 2017 “Memorial Day weekend is over. What are your plans for the summer?” “Summer is to work hard and save money so I can take another vacation. I usually take a vacation for two months and go to Mexico through February and March. We want to drive cross country.” “Well, I got a lot of honey-do’s on the list, so I’ll be trying to fi t all the stuff my wife wants me to do. And I want to go camping.” THE DAILY ASTORIAN // QUESTION OF THE WEEK Greg Filliger, U.S. Highway 26/Clatsop County “I have no vaca- tion plans. I’ll be working in Cannon Beach all summer long, probably six days a week.” Elizabeth Thompson, Cannon Beach KaSandra DeHart, Cannon Beach OBITUARIES Michael William Knop Carol Darling Oja Barendse Cannon Beach May 3, 1958 — May 13, 2017 Knappa Dec. 25, 1925 — May 22, 2017 Mike, the Wheel, was born in Detroit, Michi- gan, on May 3, 1958, and died in c entral Oregon on May 13, 2017. After high school, Mike started his journey to the West Coast with stops in Denver, Colo- rado, and Kennewick, Washington. Mike met Barb in Denver — thanks to Barb’s twin sister — in the summer of 1982, when Barb was on vacation and needed a golf part- ner. The couple came to Cannon Beach for the summer of 1983, and never left. Mike and Barb were married on the beach in Cannon Beach on June 30, 1984, with all members of their imme- diate families in attendance. Mike was a paint- ing contractor in Cannon Beach. Mike’s side of the family includes: his father, Bill; brother, Larry and Barb No. 2 (Amanda, Alex); sister, Jane and Ken Bridge (Christopher and Roxanne, Sara and Joe and Josh); brother, Phil; and Aunt “Joe” and the camping cousins, Kris (Tim), Kate and Kelly (Doug). He was pre- ceded in death by his mother, Irene. Barb’s side of the family includes: broth- ers-in-law, Jim and Marianne Eggers, (Nathan, Rachel, Brooklyn, Courtney), Steve and Di Eggers, (Emily and Michael, Kelly, Stephanie), Phil Eggers, Joe and Lori Eggers (Jacob, Zach); sisters-in-law, Margaret Zerr (Michael, Cas- sandra), Katy and Jeff Eucker (Adam, Alyssa), Mary and Tom Davis (Anna), and Patty and Dana (Nicole, Melanie, Zach); a niece, Jennifer (Jon) Johnson; and 12 great-nieces and neph- ews. He was preceded in death by his father and mother-in-law, Stew and Patricia Eggers; broth- ers-in- law, Fred Zerr and Paul Eggers; brother and sister-in- law, Alden and Tina Thomas; and a niece, Allison Thomas. Mike and Barb were extremely lucky to have had two wonder dogs. Boomer was the fi rst dog, and Zoomer followed. Boomer and Zoomer were a big part of Mike’s heart. Mike requested a party, and his party will be held on Saturday, June 10 (Belmont Day) at Cheri’s Café in downtown Cannon Beach, start- ing at 2 p.m. To honor Mike’s life, do not buy fl owers, but rather plant something permanent. Mike would want you to wear casual, color- ful clothes to his party. Mike believed in living life to the fullest, chasing dreams, placing bets, cherishing and cultivating relationships, enjoy- ing hobbies, learning something new every day and reading. It was important for Mike to live in para- dise, catch and release and spend quality time with friends, especially at Cheri’s. Horse rac- ing, brewing beer, cooking great meals, base- ball, hockey and fl y fi shing were Mike’s favor- ite pastimes. Hughes-Ransom Mortuary and Crematory is handling the arrangements.
