Cadillac - Michael Wayne Talsma, long time resident of Cadillac and the Lake City area passed away unexpectedly at home on Sunday, July 17, 2022. He was 53.

Michael was born on January 11, 1969, in Cadillac, Michigan to Robert and Eugenia (Smith) Talsma. Mike grew up in Lake City, attending school there and eventually became a graduate of Lake City High School. He made his living working at FIAMM in Cadillac for a number of years, before his health wouldn't allow him to work any longer.
