Michael Edwin Engstrom, 64, passed away March 30, 2020 at Utah Valley Regional Medical Center.
He was born January 28, 1956 in San Diego, CA to Ona Eileen Archer and Axel Engstrom. He married Elena Seguine on November 16, 1979 in Fillmore, UT.
Mike grew up in San Diego, CA until his family moved to Kanosh, UT when he was 17. He graduated from Millard High School and went on to attend Southern Utah State College. After returning from college he met the love of his life Elena and began working at Warner Motors as a mechanic. Mike loved his Warner Motors family but found an even greater love for serving the community as a Volunteer Fire Fighter for 26 years and 10 of those years as Fire Chief. He was also a lifetime member of the Utah State Firemen’s Association. He always had time to chat with anyone and everyone. Mike had many stories he loved to share and plenty pictures of his grandkids to show off. He had many years of automotive knowledge he enjoyed sharing with anyone that came into the parts store.
He is survived by his wife of 40 years Elena Engstrom of Fillmore; son Alex (Sara) Engstrom of Cedar City; daughter Chelsea (Gerardo) Farfan of Fillmore; brother Karl (Tamara) Engstrom of Kanosh; two grandchildren: Caleb Farfan and Penelope (P-Bucket) Farfan. He is preceded in death by his Mother and Father, Ona Eileen and Axel Engstrom.
