Mike Freels Obituary, Death – We had the unpleasant burden of alerting the Sacred Heart community that our beloved friend, Mr. Mike Freels, had passed away as the result of an unforeseen illness yesterday evening. I was able to do so, but it was a difficult task. I say this with a heavy feeling in my chest. Mr. Freels stepped down from his duties as maintenance and janitorial supervisor at our organization in June of this year, after having served in those capacities for our organization for a combined total of 15 years.
Mike was a true gentleman who treated those around him with kindness, compassion, and affection at all times. He was an employee who was well respected because of his dedication to his work and his unwavering loyalty to the company. He had a profound fondness not only for Sacred Heart, but also for our students and the families of our students. During this difficult time, he would be grateful if you would keep him, his ex-wife Deb, and their two daughters Elizabeth (SHS ’14) and Katherine (SHS ’16) in your thoughts and prayers.
He would also appreciate it if you would keep his ex-wife Deb in your thoughts and prayers as well. Have a beautiful weekend, and know that we are looking forward to worshiping with you all at Mass this coming Sunday as we continue to prepare for the birth of our Savior during this season of Advent. May God bless you and keep you in his loving care.
