Michael Keith Grime

Michael “Mike” Keith Grime, 57, passed away unexpectedly on Monday, August 22nd 2016, in Marceline, Missouri. Michael was born on January 10, 1959 in Macomb, IL to proud parents Patricia “Pat” Ann (Gillette) and Edmund “Ed” Granvil Grime. Mike was a proud Meadville Missouri Eagle, and graduated from High School in 1977. He had one daughter, named Rachael Michelle, with his former spouse Beverly (Bennett) Grime. Mike worked for the Missouri Department of Corrections for almost twenty years. He loved classic cars and took pride in being able to name year, make and model of any car on the road. Classic rock and roll was often on his stereo. He relished history and could frequently be found enjoying historical documentaries or reading about the Civil War. Michael loved animals, especially former family pet, a chunky cocker spaniel named Scarlet. He enjoyed hunting, fishing, and was a lifelong member of the NRA. Stubborn, ornery, but always there with a smile, Mike will be missed by all who knew him. Michael is survived by his daughter, Rachael Grime, and former spouse Beverly Grime, both of Cairo; and beloved Mother Patricia of Macomb, IL. The oldest of five siblings, he is survived by sister Tammy Dennis of Chillicothe, MO, and brothers Matt (Gina) Grime of Chula, MO, Eddie (Charlessa) of Brookfield, MO, and Tom (Wendy) Grime of Camp Point, IL. Countless nephews, nieces, and cousins also mourn his loss. Michael was preceded in death by his Father, Edmund Grime, and treasured grandparents, aunts, and uncles. Arrangements are being handled by MILLION TAYLOR FUNERAL HOMES of Moberly, Missouri. Michael will be inurned at the Jacksonville Veteran’s Cemetery on Friday, September 30, 2016 at 11:00 a.m. To send flowers or a memorial gift to the family of Michael Keith Grime please visit our Sympathy Store.
