Michael A. Meseberg

March 13, 1952 – Dec. 26, 2023

Longtime Grant County resident Michael (Mike) Meseberg, 71, passed away due to complications of his four-year battle with multiple myeloma. Mike was born in Miles City, Montana to Rodney and Alice LaVonne (Anderson) Meseberg on March 13, 1952. The family moved to Seattle when Mike was just 1 week old. He used to quip that he didn’t like Miles City so he hopped a train with his Mom and 11-month-old brother, Dave. Mike’s mom carefully put Mike in a basket for the trip. Mike’s first brush with mortality was when the porter, mistaking the basket for a picnic, tossed Mike, basket and all, off the train. Thankfully, another porter caught it, baby Mike intact. They joined their father in Seattle (Des Moines) where Rod had started a job at Boeing.

The head of the U.N.’s food agency is warning of the potential of “absolute devastation” as the outbreak’s effects ripple through Africa and the Middle East. That comes as the outbreak continues to shift away from Asia to Europe, the Mideast and the United States.
