Michael "Midnight Mike" White

Michael "Midnight Mike" White, 64, Moose Lake, formerly of Duluth, died Monday, November 14, 2016.  He was born on August 2, 1952 in Bethel, Alaska.

Mike's father was an ace pilot in WWII and later became a bush pilot in Alaska. Mike moved to Duluth at a young age with his mother, Orel.  She raised Mike through the years and was known as "Ma" to many friends who would spend time at their house.  Mike attended Ordean Jr. High in Duluth and later Duluth East High School graduating in 1970.  After high school, Mike went to Portland, OR and worked for a short time and met his father.  He later attended UMD and bartended at the Reef Lounge in Duluth.  Mike retired from the Army National Guard and had been on tours during Operation Iraqi Freedom.  He also retired from the Minnesota Department of Corrections.  He was an avid gun collector and MN Twins Fan.  Mike also enjoyed the TV series, Bates Motel.

Mike was known to many as "Midnight Mike" by maintaining his nightshift hours through the years and would often show up at establishments at the end of the evening and giving assurance to the bartenders who were working.
