Mike lived in Oak Harbor with his eternal companion Shelly and pets Sammy and Jake for the past seven years.
Mike was born Aug. 8, 1963 in Ogden, Utah to Carol (Chuck) Fidroeff of Brookings, Oregon and Joseph Weeks.
Mike completed the culinary arts program from the Job Corps in Sacramento, Calif. in 1987. He then went on to work for the Clearfield Job Corps for several years as well as doing a variety of other jobs. To further his learning, he followed in his father’s footsteps as a baker.

A memorial service will be held at 11 a.m. Wednesday, Dec. 3, with visitation one hour prior, at The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints located at 201 NE O’Leary St., Oak Harbor.
Arrangements are entrusted to Visser Funeral Home Langley.
