Michael Ringeisen, 58, died April 8, 2022 at the River Valley Care Center in his hometown of Redwood Falls after a prolonged illness associated with the mechanical heart valve he received in 2007. A memorial service for friends and family will be on Thursday, June 16 at Gloria Dei Lutheran Church (4 p.m. visitation, 5 p.m. service) followed by refreshments. Mike was born on August 16, 1963 in Minneapolis to Gina and Michael Ringeisen. He gained three technical degrees in Fluid Power, Robotics & Electronic and had a successful career as an Electronics Technician.

He married Bobby Jo McGowan on December 31, 1993, and raised three children.

Mike was an avid outdoorsman and spent as much time as possible hunting, trapping and fishing with family and friends.

His friends paid this tribute to him, ‘Mike was one of the kindest people you could ever meet, he was generous with his time and was always willing to help a person in need, he will be sorely missed.’ He is survived by his three children, Brandy, Hunter and Hope as well as his mother and three siblings.
