Hi everyone! My name is Ciarra - Mike's daughter-in-law. I have created this SpotFund to help offset the costs of his funeral and end of life expenses for Mike's wife, Erthel Upton.
Mike Upton unexpectedly passed on Saturday 10/25/2025, just 4 days after his 60th birthday. As most know, the costs that come with such tragedy can weigh heavy on loved ones as wishes are met. Mike is known for his smart, witty comments and ability to make anyone laugh. He had so much love for not only Erthel, but his children and grandchildren, too. This has been such a difficult time - Mike will be missed tremendously.
We’re asking for the support of friends, family, and our community to help give Mike the farewell he deserves. Any amount — no matter how small — will make a difference and help ease this heavy time for his loved ones. Even a quick share. We appreciate your time and give many thanks for any support given. Any funds raised above the cost of services will be given directly to Erthel to offset everyday expenses and allow her time to properly grieve with a little less to worry about.
