He was a loving son, brother, father, husband, and friend who will be deeply missed by all who knew him. Michael loved mentoring, coaching, and helping anybody he could improve their careers, reach their dreams, and improve their situation in life.

He enjoyed the outdoors, hunting, and fishing. He also found joy in working with his sons and other young men, helping them become great men through coaching and refereeing youth soccer, baseball, and football and his Boy Scouts and DeMolay leadership.

He is survived by his loving wife, Kathryn Wolf Wheeler, sons Justin Paul Wheeler, Christopher Glen Wheeler, and Wolf Michael Wheeler mother Patty Lou Cowan Wheeler, sister Connie Sue Wheeler Morton, brother-in-law Jack Morton; and grandchildren Wesley Paul Wheeler, Kaleigh Paige Wheeler, Emily Ryan Wheeler, Aimey Faith Wheeler, and our precious Sadie Grace Wheeler.
