Tribute to Mike Courtney

We lost someone very special unexpectedly in a tragic motorcycle accident Saturday September 26/2020. Mike Courtney, born and raised here in the Okanagan, was a incredible husband, son, brother and friend. He was also an incredibly thoughtful, highly thought of and compassionate community member contributing to the Okanagan Falls/Summerland/Penticton area. Mike was a strong, kind, hilarious, generous, salt of the earth and big hearted man. Mike has spent the last few weeks caring for his wife Mercedes as she recovers from surgery and was already off work. We want to help her with finances while healing and now grieving. We know everyone wants to help in some way! She has a great support system in all her friends and family! There is rent, bills, truck payments and funeral costs ahead.  If you can, please donate as much as you are comfortable, as well as by sharing with your family and friends. If you are more comfortable with an etransfer direct to her, please reach out to me, Janel Bailey (her best friend), either by facebook messenger or text, for the information to do so. I am so confident we will exceed the goal I listed.  Thank you so much for your help and love, please direct all your thoughts and prayers of healing to the Courtney Family! Remember to live in the moment like Mike and hug your loved ones every day! ❤️❤️ Mercedes is the beneficiary of this fundraiser.
