Michael Wayne Sumner went to be with God on June 11, 2018 at the age of 63 after a long illness. Mike was surrounded by his loving family in his home until the end of his journey.
Mike was born on August 21, 1954 to parents Jake Newton and Ethel Elizabeth Sumner in Bartlesville, OK. Mike grew up the youngest of 11 brothers and sisters, and he graduated from Dewey High School in 1972. Mike worked at various construction jobs before he started his own carpentry & construction business. He loved helping his customers and would often take time to visit with his elderly customers.
Mike married Anita McCauley on December 31, 1996. They spent their 22 years together being each other's soul mates and cherishing each other and their families. Mike will be forever remembered for his love of family, friends, and God, as well as his generosity, kindness, humor, and passion for OU football.
