September 8, 1951 – February 18, 2015

Mike was born in Miles City on September 8, 1951. He was the third of seven children born to Robert and LouEtta Anderson. Mike grew up on the family ranch at Knowlton, and attended grade school in Knowlton. He graduated from Sacred Heart School in 1969.

He served our country on the USS Brewton for 4 years, returning to Miles City in June of 1975. After attending Heavy Equipment Operator School in Florida, he graduated from MCC again.

Until 2012, Mike worked in Eastern Montana As a farm and ranch hand Mike worked at the Boulware, Cavill & Erickson Ranches along with others. In 2012 a back injury forced him to move to Miles City where he resided until his death.

Mike loved working with animals and being around them especially his dogs. He was an avid rock and stick collector and would often be found in the hills at Knowlton collecting them. Most of all he enjoyed spending time with his nieces and nephews whom he considered his own children.

He was preceded in death by his parents, Robert and LouEtta, and one sister, Alise. He is survived by one Sister, Nancy (Paul) Dyba and four brothers, Pat, (Sandy) Anderson, Steve (Jackie) Anderson, Bill Anderson, and Kevin (Cheri) Anderson, all of Miles City, as well as the “other Brother”, Dean Sloan of Billings. Numerous nieces and nephews and grand-nieces and nephews also survive.

    I am so sorry for your loss. I enjoyed my many visits with Mike. When I worked at the VA he was a great patient. He always had a joke or two to tell. I always admired how absolutely positive he was all the time.
