Michael James Conley

Michael James "Mikey" Conley, 28, was taken from this world too soon and unexpectedly on Monday, June 6, 2016. He was born in November on Friday the 13th, 1987, to Tom and Patti Conley in Missoula at Community Hospital.

Mikey was the youngest of the five Conley children. He was raised locally attending Bonner elementary and Hellgate High School. He was a Leadman in the Flats Finishing Department at Alcom located in the old Stimson Lumber Mill, where his father had worked before him. Throughout Michael's life he truly had a way of getting into all kinds of trouble with his two older brothers and his friends, all known as "the Bonner boys". Michael was a great friend and was always able to make anyone he talked to laugh. He had a unique way of speaking his mind in such a colorful manner. He was an amazing baby brother, capable of helping his siblings while driving them crazy. He was an outdoor enthusiast, a true Montanan, spending as much time in the woods or on the water as he could.

He was preceded in death by all his grandparents, two of his uncles and a few cousins. He's survived by his daughter, Taylee Rianne Conley with Jaela Mckinney; his son, Heston James Conley with Alex Rhoades; his girlfriend, Danda Rodda; his parents, Tom and Patti Conley; his siblings, Beth Conley, Pam Conley, Tommy Conley "TC" and wife Jessica, and his brother and best friend John Conley and nine nieces and nephews.

A celebration of Michael's life will take place at the Red Barn in West Riverside, Saturday, June 11, at 1 p.m. for friends and family.
