Michael A. Klinkner, 52, of Wayland, died of cancer Tuesday, April 14.

Mike worked for Parker-Hannafin in its automotive division as a project engineer. Ford Mustangs were a passion of Mike’s. He enjoyed the outdoors; hunting, fishing and snowmobiling. Some of their favorite times as a family were camping and spending time at the lake house.

Mike was handy around the house, often tackling big projects like refinishing floors and tile work, and his yard was always the envy of all the neighbors.

Mike is survived by his wife of 33 years, Tracey Klinkner (Fish); his children, Melissa and Vern Hall, Michael D. Klinkner, Mallory and Greg Taber, Madison Elizabeth Klinkner; his 14 grandchildren; his father, Richard Klinkner; his siblings, Cary and Patty Klinkner, Kim and Walt Haase; his sister- and brother-in-law, Deb and Steve Prenatt; and many nieces and nephews.

He was preceded in death by his mother, Constance Klinkner (Lesinski).

A time for relatives and friends to visit with Mike’s family will be held from 2 to 4 and 7 to 9 p.m. Friday at Kubiak-Cook Funeral Services in Dorr, 4330 18th Ave. Funeral services will be held 11 a.m. Saturday, April 18, with visitation prior to the service beginning at 10 a.m. Interment will be at Resurrection Cemetery.
