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.”

“I have no vaca-
tion plans. I’ll be
working in Cannon

OBITUARIES

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. Visit the memorial
