Michael Conklin
July 5th, 1988 - March 6th, 2021
Obituary Michael Conklin has passed on to the next life. He would have been 33 in July. He was an amazing human being and had suffered an incredible blow a couple of years ago, losing his lower left leg in an accident at work, leaving him wearing a prosthetic. His actions, along with others, following the accident, saved his life. He was nothing short of heroic in his family's eyes. Michael was probably best known in HS for being a 2 x State runner-up in wrestling. His style was unorthodox and he was a joy to watch as he often finished his matches in under 2 minutes by pinning his opponents. The state champions both years he came in second had won National Championships. He was a veteran of the Navy and served on the USS George Washington stationed near Japan. His three great loves were family/friends, wrestling and working out at the weight gym. To plant Memorial Trees in memory of Michael Conklin, please click here to visit our Sympathy Store.
