Mike Predum was a good father, husband, and Legion member. Mike would always volunteer to help on all Post 84 projects. He was proud to be a Legion member, and veteran. The American Legion could use more veterans with the attitude that Mike had. He will be missed by all the Post 84 members. This is a Legionnaire that we all thought a lot of.

He was always volunteering for something or other, even when he didn’t feel good. I will always remember his smile, and his sense of humor. If Mike could aggravate you, you knew he liked you, and that grin of his, would make you laugh. Mike was loved and will be dearly missed by many. My thoughts and prayers to all of you.

Mike was a dear friend and a great Legionnaire. He was not only a patriot but a devoted husband and father.
He was an American Legion officer, Color/Honor Guard member. Red Cross blood drive volunteer, an
important part of the Wild Bunch Coffee Clutch ( where a bunch of us would get together just
about every Wednesday morning for coffee or breakfast) and Mike would be there bright and
early to set up the tables and then help with the cooking. He might grumble a little but he
loved every minute of being a part of it and being with his fellow Legionaries.
He was a wonderful person and will be truly missed. Rest in Peace my dear friend
I want to sincerely thank Iva and the family members for asking me to officiate Mike’s service. It was truly an honor and privilege.

Mike was a dear friend and a great Legionnaire. He was not only a patriot but a devoted husband and father.
He was an American Legion officer, Color/Honor Guard member. Red Cross blood drive volunteer, an
important part of the Wild Bunch Coffee Clutch ( where a bunch of us would get together just
about every Wednesday morning for coffee or breakfast) and Mike would be there bright and
early to set up the tables and then help with the cooking. He might grumble a little but he
loved every minute of being a part of it and being with his fellow Legionaries.
He was a wonderful person and will be truly missed. Rest in Peace my dear friend
I want to sincerely thank Iva and the family members for asking me to officiate Mike’s service. It was truly an honor and privilege.
