Mike was born in Flint on April 20, 1975, the son of Mr. and Mrs. Chester and Cheryl (Pease) Dodd. Educated locally, he attended Elisabeth Ann Johnson High School. Mike was an excellent mechanic and worked on all his family and friends’ vehicles at Dodd's Auto. Mike was a huge car enthusiast and loved all things fast and furious. He was a jack-of-all-trades and enjoyed wrenching on anything with a motor. He was a long-time member of the First Baptist Church in Mt. Morris. His family meant the world to him. He enjoyed spending time with them at family gatherings and was the life of any party. He lit up any room he walked into. Mike was a walking encyclopedia and was exceptionally funny. He was well known and always ran into someone he knew, no matter where he went. Mike also enjoyed snowmobiling, dancing and singing, and quoting lines from movies. He was a wonderful man and will be dearly missed.
