Michaele "Mickey" Spreeman *61


 











Michaele "Mickey" Spreeman *61 passed away on April 11, 2025. Mickey grew up in Canton, Ohio as a tomboy on a farm with her toy six-shooter, and graduated from McKinley High School (1960) excelling in marching band. She began studies at Malone College while working for Firestone Tire where she met and married her first husband, Joseph P. Hayden in 1962. She played the guitar, piano, trumpet, and French horn. She remained active in bowling, often travelling to tournaments throughout the state. Mickey enjoyed the role of wife and mother but also held the position of park manager of Hillan Lake Village in Brooklyn, MI. Eventually she retired from the county health department as a Children's Special Health Care Representative. Mickey remained a faithful and doting wife, mother, grandmother, great-grandmother, and sister bringing joy and love to her large family. We send our prayers to the family of Mickey during this difficult time.

He was a boy from Cincinnati and I, a girl from Cleveland, from complete opposite ends of the state and here we were meeting in Canton, Ohio. We learned that we had both been at Malone's Scholar's Day event the year before but never saw each other! During our first year at MU we hung out with the same core group of friends all five of us were pretty inseparable. Our time together as a group was spent watching movies or playing games in the Barn, going to Late Night in the cafeteria especially on nugget night, playing ping pong in the lounge of Gurney (PGB) or Froggy's, watching American Idol in dorms, or making trips to Taco Bell. Band and chorale were the major social outlets for both of us and being in such frequent company made it easy to grow fond of each other. We began dating the summer after our freshma...
