Michael ‘Mike’ Gene Harper

November 14, 1961 – November 25, 2021

Michael “Mike” Gene Harper, loving husband, father, pompa (grandfather) and friend, left us on Nov. 25, 2021, at age 60, to go home to his Heavenly Father.

Mike was born in Everett, Washington, on Nov. 14, 1961, to Larry Harper and Myrna Griffiths. In 1985, Mike married the love of his life, Laurie, and together they had seven children: Michael, Aaron, Isaac, Katie, Christopher, Josiah and Lilyann.

Mike was a hard worker. He worked many jobs in his youth and fell in love with construction. Mike chased his dreams, moving to Moses Lake in 1990 with his beloved wife Laurie and children. He worked hard and built his own home and his own business, L&M Cornerstone Construction. He was known for his craftsmanship in construction and could not leave without having everything perfect. Mike also found a new hobby he enjoyed, cattle. He began Rocking H Cattle Company.

Mike was known for his kindness and charming smile. He was always there for his family and friends. Mike was a humble soul; he attended many charitable events and often donated to charity. He was known to help people he barely knew. He came to Christ back in the year 2000 and has been serving the Lord faithfully ever since.

Mike is survived by his wife Laurie Harper; sons Michael (Jessica), Aaron (Heather), Isaac (Cheyenne) and Josiah; daughter Katie; and his nine grandchildren. He was preceded in death by his mother Myrna, son Christopher and daughter Lilyann.

A memorial service will be held at 2 p.m. on Dec. 11, 2021, at Grace Harvest Church at 313 N. Fig St. in Moses Lake.
