Michael D. “Mike” Basgall, 70, La Crosse, Kansas, passed away Sunday,
 February 6, 2022, at The University of Kansas Medical Center, Kansas 
City, Kansas.

Mike was born September 29, 1951, in La Crosse Kansas, to Isadore and
 Josephine (Rebel) Basgall. Mike attended La Crosse High School, La 
Crosse, Kansas, and was a lifelong resident of Rush County, Kansas.

Mike met the love of his life Sue and was lucky enough to marry her 
on June 12, 1971. Their adventure began with a mutual love of camping, 
boating, motorcycles, road trips and each other’s company. Mike enjoyed 
live music and even played in a band during those early years. They 
started their family with the birth of their first child, Aaron, in 1978
 and with the arrival of their second son, Christopher, in 1981, their 
family was complete. Aaron and Chris gave Mike a run for his money but 
he understood every investment came with risk and took time to build.

Mike worked hard for his family every day. He worked 41 years at the 
Otis Helium Plant, Otis, Kansas. After retirement he became a nationwide
 consultant for Cryo Technologies.

The fruits of his labor and big payout came later with his five 
grandchildren. They were the absolute light of his life and his heart 
beamed with pride. If you ever wonder what love looks like, it was 
Mike’s big smile every time he saw or talked about his grandkids. 
Michael left us far too soon. He used the last of his strength and his 
last natural breathe to call out by name each of his grandkids. With 
that Mike left us all with enough courage and love to last a lifetime 
and we will forever be lucky enough to have loved Mike.&nbsp;

Mike lived strong in his faith and was a member of St. Joseph’s 
Catholic Church in Liebenthal, Kansas. He was a third-degree knight in 
the Knights of&nbsp;Columbus St. Anthony Council 4166, Schoenchen, Kansas. He
 was a member of the Harley Owners Group.&nbsp;

He is survived by his wife, Sue Basgall, La Crosse, Kansas; sons, 
Aaron Basgall (Mary), Hutchinson, Kansas, and Christopher Basgall 
(Tara), Hays, Kansas; grandchildren, Tyra, Trinity, David (Natalie), 
Brooklyn, and Isabella; great grandchildren, Landon, and Luca; brothers,
 Dwain Basgall, and Gary Rebel (Susan); and&nbsp; many nieces and nephews.&nbsp;

He is preceded in death by his parents; sister-in-law, Ruby Rebel; and nephew, Gary Rebel.&nbsp;

Visitation will be Friday, February 11, 2022, from 4:00 P.M. to 8:00 
P.M. at St. Joseph’s Catholic Church, Liebenthal, Kansas, with the 
family receiving friends from 6:00 P.M. to 7:00 P.M.&nbsp; A vigil service 
and rosary will be at 7:00 P.M.&nbsp;

Church visitation will be Saturday, February 12, 2022, from 9:30 A.M.
 to 10:20 A.M. at St. Joseph’s Catholic Church, Liebenthal, Kansas.

Funeral service will be Saturday, February 12, 2022, at 10:30 A.M. at
 St. Joseph’s Catholic Church, Liebenthal, Kansas, with Father Stephen 
Dabanka officiating.&nbsp; Interment will be in St. Joseph’s Cemetery,
