Jeffery "Mike" Michael Lane Obituary (1953 - 2026)

With a spirit as electrifying as the power lines he climbed for decades, Jeffery "Mike" Michael Lane's life was a testament to hard work, passion, and relentless devotion to the things and people he loved. Mike, born on October 19, 1953, in Bremerton, WA, was a man of many talents and boundless energy, who left a lasting impact on all who were lucky enough to know him. Mike started his career as a lineman in the electrical power industry, a profession he pursued with dedication until his retirement. He was not just a man of work but also a man of leisure, spending his free time traveling and indulging in his love for caring for aquariums. An avid car restorer, he had a knack for bringing old machines back to life, much like he did with his relationships, always adding a spark and keeping things lively. His retirement years were spent in Selah, Washington, after a life well-lived in Poulsbo. His tractor was his companion, and his property, his canvas, where he painted with hard work and dedication. His life was a beautiful blend of work, passion, and love. Mike is survived by his loving wife, Kathryn Lane, and his devoted daughters, Michelle Saurdiff and Shannon Callender, 6 grandchildren and one great granddaughter. They, along with all who knew Mike, carry the memories of his vibrant life in their hearts. He was preceded in death by his son, Patrick Lane. Mike's legacy of love, laughter, and life will continue to live on in the hearts of all who knew him. We invite all who knew and loved Mike to share their memories and photos on his memorial page.
