Fact 1* (an unknown value.)
The Times Herald, Port Huron, Michigan
June 17, 2020
Birth*Dr. Michael Roy Shier was born on 20 July 1945. 
He was the son of John Wellington Shier and Mazie LOUISE Binkley. 
Occupation*Dr. Michael Roy Shier was an orthopedic surgeon in Michigan in 2009.
Death*He died on 14 June 2020 in Port Huron, Michigan, United States, at age 74; Dr. Michael Shier, retired physician and co-founder of Orthopedic Associates of Port Huron, P.C. who saw thousands of patients over the years, has died at 74. 
His daughter, Kristine Shier Edie, said he died Sunday night due to complications from an illness.
She will miss holding her father’s hand, the sheer love he had for his family and said he had an impact on the community in so many ways.
“The community has lost a remarkable surgeon and a wonderful friend,” said Dave Devendorf, a golf friend and former attorney for Shier. 

Steve Heithoff, a fellow orthopedic surgeon and Shier’s business partner for around 30 years, said Shier co-founded Orthopedic Associates of Port Huron, P.C. with Wilmont Kreis and David Ernst in 1983. 
The three started the practice in a mobile trailer unit in the Port Huron Hospital parking lot, now McLaren Port Huron. 
Over the next 37 years they grew the business to their current location on River Centre Drive, an over 35,000 square foot building with over 110 employees, he said. 
“It is a remarkable, remarkable practice that these three guys initiated and built over the years,” Devendorf said. 

When it came to Shier’s practice, it didn’t matter what the procedure was, once he put his mind to it he could do it and he was a pioneer for arthroscopy in its early years, Heithoff said. 
He touched “thousands” of patients’ lives over the year. Shier Edie recalled one patient, a girl who was usually shy, who made her father a Froot Loops necklace. He made sure to wear it every time she had an appointment, Shier Edie said. 


Even after he retired, Shier would still visit the office once in a while donning a ball cap and work boots, Heithoff said. 
“Because that was Mike Shier, he didn’t really hold any airs,” he said.

Shier was one of those people you almost envied or resented because they were just so great at everything they did, Heithoff said. 
“He was good at so many different things,” Devendorf said, calling him a “serial hobbyist.” 
His hobbies included photography, woodworking and sharp shooting. He played golf and hockey for decades and earned a private pilot certificate. He was intensely focused and extremely accomplished, Heithoff said. 
He also had an incredible use of the English language which he could use effectively for humor that would endure anyone to him, Devendorf said. 

Alex Shier, Michael Shier's grandson, said his grandfather would also play guitar for him and in the past year he had started writing poetry. 
The two would meet up about once a week and his grandfather would bring these huge stacks of poetry he would read for hours. 
“He was a remarkable guy,” Alex Shier said, and he plans to turn the poetry into a musical album. 
“He’s inspired me further than I can see,” he said. 

Shier Edie said her father had three children, eight grandchildren and six great-grandchildren. He was adamant he didn’t want a funeral, but she had told him that so many people wanted to appreciate his life. 
So they are going to take his hobbies, the fruits of his labors, and have an art show instead. 
Shier Edie will take photos he took, blow them up, frame them and hang them on walls. They will put out examples of his woodworking and even some artwork he made in grade school. Alex Shier and other family members will take some of the poems and put them to music, she said. 
The celebration will be open to family and certain co-workers. Shier Edie was still working on a date, but was considering July 20, her father’s birthday. 

From Pollock-Randall FUneral Homes:

After tempting fate too many times, Michael Roy Shier, Sr finally exhausted his nine plus lives on June 14, 2020. Falling out a high tree while trying to escape his childhood home, meeting the underside of a semi while driving in a storm, falling off a ladder fixing the satellite dish, developing an aneurysm the size of a potato, being under a shattered plate glass window with large shards of glass precariously hanging over his head and many other concussions and broken bones could not take this pillar of the community down. His family expected him go out in a blaze of glory. They were a little disappointed.

Born in Los Angeles to the amazing John and M. Louise Shier on July 20, 1945, as the first of six children, Michael began to make his mark on the world. There has been speculation that he was the favorite child, but he vehemently denied this, claiming that one or the other offspring got all the special attention. In fact, all the siblings have been debating this topic for decades. With his devilish smile and quick wit, he was a force that had to be focused. Little League, football, hockey, barrel jumping in Palmer Park were all ways to have an active outlet and keep Michael out of trouble. But, trouble he sought. Nights at The Dome and skipped school days in the pool halls, where he won enough money to buy his high school sweetheart and soon to be wife, Jill Erickson, a large ruby ring, were the norm.

With the extra time in detention, he got to know the nuns at St Stephens High School quite well. One took interest/pity on Michael and the potential that was being wasted and called in a favor from a priest in Dayton, Ohio. This was the springboard to his 25 years in academia, that included Michigan State, Western Michigan and Wayne State University. Many degrees, certificates, published papers and accolades later, Dr. Shier starting practicing orthopedics in Port Huron, Michigan, much to the happiness of his paternal grandmother, who exclaimed that it was about time Michael got a real job at the age of 33.

Medicine was Michael’s true calling. He listened. He was a problem solver. He was innovative. He was a procrastinator. Urban legend has it that most of our local doctors have scribes during exams because Shier never did his dictation. Co-workers and family would take boxes of charts to encourage, even cajole, Doc to complete them before his hospital privileges were suspended. What he lacked in paperwork efficiency, he made up for tenfold with bedside manner, a firm handshake, a good joke and true caring.

Interests (or in some cases, obsessions) outside of his medical practice were another way for Michael to quench his thirst for knowledge. Proficiency wasn’t good enough. He pushed himself to be an expert. These areas included golf, woodworking, guitar playing, poetry writing, aviation, photography and more. He shared these passions by teaching others and making friends, wherever he went.

Michael was fun, smart (some have said genius), generous and loved his family deeply. He is leaving behind three children: daughter, Kristine; sons, Michael and Andrew; son-in-law, Robert; mother of his children, Jill; grandchildren: Kaitlin, Chelsea, Alex, Claudia, Adam, Elise, Grayson and Eli; 6 great grandchildren; Siblings: Nancy, Dianne, Susan, Patricia and John; and many co-workers and friends. Michael was greatly affected by the loss of his parents and specials friends Steve Varga, Bill Kreis and Ron Brickey and his dog, Abby.

We are celebrating the Art and Life of Michael Roy Shier on Tuesday, August 25th, 4-6 pm at the Seaway Terminal in Port Huron. Please bring a mask.

You, Michael, were taken a little precipitously from us.

Mildred Kathleen Macpherson passed away peacefully on Saturday, January 11, 2020 at the age of 96 years. 
Mildred was born and raised on a farm near Lemsford, SK, where she enjoyed the rural life despite all the hardships that came with it in those days. In addition, as a young adult, she lost her hearing but met this challenge with courage and perseverance. After high school, Mildred went to Medicine Hat and took her business/secretarial training. She used this training to secure jobs first as a business school instructor and then at various oil companies in Saskatchewan and Alberta. Following this, she worked for the Alberta Wheat Pool where she met her future husband. She and Allan had many happy years on the farm in Delia, AB, and thanks to Allan’s position at the Wheat Pool, were able to travel to many countries in the world and most of the continents. They eventually moved to Calgary permanently, where they lived in Rideau Towers before moving in to Wentworth Manor.
Mildred will be remembered for her cheerful disposition, her great laugh, her big heart, her amazing memory and organizational skills which she kept to the end of her days.
Mildred is survived by nieces and nephews, Lloyd (Colleen Wood) Shier, Wayne (Cynthia) Shier, Edith (Gerald) Printz, Bob (Sylvia) Macpherson, Marg (John) Bertrand, Bill (Karen) Macpherson, and Janet (John) Mitchell. She is also survived by many grand and great-grandnephews and nieces. She was predeceased by her husband and soul mate, Allan; her loving parents, Lewis and Lila Shier; and her brother Arthur and his wife, Cherrie.
