Robert Ellison

Robert Michael Ellison was born in Boulder, Colo., Dec. 27, 1955. He was characterized as a free spirit. His adventures and work took him to many states throughout the U.S. He chose to plant roots in both Colorado and the Black Hills of South Dakota.
Mike’s hobbies included reading, hiking and enjoying God‘s great outdoors! We will remember his smile, boisterous laughter, witty sarcasm and the fact he always had an animal by his side.
Mike was ushered into the Lord’s presence from medical complications Nov. 16, 2021. He was 65.
Even though he was taken away from this world unexpectedly, his friendship and love left a beacon of light for many in the community and his family.
He was preceded in death by his parents, Charles R. Ellison and Betty L. Ellison of Boulder/Custer, S.D.; and brother, Charles Edward Ellison of Boulder.
Mike is survived by his son, Robert (Katy)  Ellison of Superior, Colo.; Ila Christine Jones of Sherman Texas, and Coleen Marie Baggett of Green Cove Springs Fla; grandchildren, Abigale and Madison Ellison of Superior; sibling, Dan K. Wilson of Ft. Worth, Texas, Patricia A. Ingram of Waddell, Ariz., Barbara J. Kellsey of Custer, Cherie L. Hollsten of Marinette, Wis., Cindy R. Maxwell of Ashburn, Va., Patrick K. Ellison of Diamond, Mo., Richard K. Ellison of Beulah, Wyo. and Matthew Ellison of Arvada, Colo.
A local Celebration of Life was held at the VFW in Custer Nov. 20. A later memorial will be held in his hometown in Boulder  after the holidays.
The family asks in lieu of flowers to consider making a donation to Battle Mountain Humane Society on Mike’s behalf. You can make a donation through the  link battlemountainhu
