Mike cared for both his parents during their lifetimes and is preceded in death by both parents, his maternal grandparents Joseph Oliver and Hazel Dunham of Okmulgee, paternal grandparents Frederick Grant and Jocie Mae Jordan of Preston, maternal uncles Joseph Dunham and Charley Dunham, paternal aunt Edna Mae Jordan, paternal uncle Joseph Grant Jordan, and cousin-in-law Jerry Phillips. Mike will be greatly missed by his surviving cousins Barbara Dunham Holt (Harvey) of Seattle, Washington, Beverly Dunham Brackett Phillips of Tulsa, Connie Dunham Page of Denver, Colorado, Mary Jordan Webb Payne Luney of Preston, Alice Jordan Pinneo of Sun City West, Arizona, and multiple second cousins and extended family with whom he always generously shared his love of knowledge, history, and books.
