Michael York, 64, of Camano Island could talk to anyone about anything with delightful enthusiasm. He passed on October 8, 2021 after a 15 year battle with cancer. His wife Nan York and family join you in cherishing his humble, inquisitive and thoughtful concern for others. Remembrance can be made to Camano Animal Shelter Association, PO Box 1726, Stanwood, WA 98292.
Michael's early education started on Mercer Island, honing passions for nature with camping/boating, hiking with Mountaineers, spelunking society and marine biology explorations.
He was drawn to Camano Island, similar to childhood terrain and ultimately where he met his wife Nan, 22 years ago.
His life's work blended his love of outdoors and creative eye. Landscaping at the Camano Plaza gave him great pleasure, property owners around the Pacific Northwest loved his work ethic and attention to detail, he assisted Beach Watchers, and many of you crossed his path at local thrift stores and auctions.
He is missed by his wife Nan, sister Patti, brother Jon and wonderful family; too numerous to name.
