Michael J Krause

(53) passed away on Nov. 14, 2010.  Preceded in death by his parents Theodore W. and Virginia R. Krause, a sister Judy Krause and a brother Norman Krause.  Mike is survived by his brother Dave (Mary McDermott) and his sisters Bobbie Rogan and Mary Beth (Dan) McDermott, cherished friends Kevin Kelly and Jean Shoemaker; our dear brother-in-law, uncle, great uncle, nephew, cousin, and father.

 Mike proudly served in the United States Army.  At home he was an enthusiastic Cardinal fan, always cheering for his team’s victory.  Mike was known for his generous personality.  He was always ready to lend a hand no matter the need.   Mike’s last gift was to give of himself as an organ donor so that someone else may continue giving in their life.

Mike’s ashes will be laid to rest at Jefferson Barracks National Cemetery on Wed. Nov 24th @ 2:00 pm in a roadside service.  In lieu of flowers, the family request donations to Cardinals Care & The National Kidney Foundation.
