Michael Good
Michael (Mike) John Good of Florissant, passed away Friday, April 15, 2016 at the age of 70.
Mike was born to Alfred and Rosemary (White) Good on October 20, 1945. He was the fourth of seven children. He grew up in Florissant and attended St. Thomas Aquinas High School. After high school, Mike enlisted in the United States Coast Guard. He served for 6 years until he was honorably discharged in 1971.
He was a born salesman and worked selling cars and in the trash industry for both Laidlaw and Waste Management where he was often the top salesman. After retirement, he worked for the Parking Spot at Lambert-St. Louis airport. He served on the board of adjustments for the cities of Dellwood and Florissant and on the board of Leisure Village.
Mike enjoyed golfing, hunting, gardening, BBQ-ing, John Wayne movies and spending time with his family, especially his grandchildren. He was the life of the party and appreciated a glass of Jack Daniels with a good cigar.
Mike is survived by his wife Mary Ann (Roberts), his three daughters and their husbands, Katie (Dave) Breiter, Jessica (Ryan) McMahan of Mankato, MN and Molly (Ian) Shipman of Marshfield, MO; his six grandchildren, Mark and Joseph Breiter, Michael McMahan, Clayton, Bradley and Madison Shipman; Siblings, Peter (Margaret), Carol Warren, Gail Cundiff (Denny), Mary Ann (Bob) Chastain, Paul (Pat), Rosemary (Joe) Imperial.

A memorial mass will be held at St. Ferdinand Catholic Church, 1765 Charbonier, Florissant, MO on Friday, April 29 at 10 AM. Visitation with the family will take place from 9 AM-10 AM at the church.
May God welcome him home and bless those who will miss him with warm memories.
I worked with Mike in the Food Industry business for a short period in the the 70’s.
He was a friend and enjoyed life at its best.
A good salesman but a terrible card or poker player. He will be missed.
My deepest sympathy to his entire family.
Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. Love to you all-Tracie
To Mike’s Family; It was at a bowling alley in the early 70’s, maybe Suburban Lanes, on St Cyr & Bellefontaine Rd on Friday nights that I got to know Mike Good. I’m sorry that I can’t recall his team’s name. Hell, I can’t remember ours. I always looked forward to playing Mike’s team. He was one funny rascal and always a “GOOD” time. I haven’t seen him since then, but always remembered those times some forty-something years ago. God bless Mike & his family. Mike Deters
