SUPPORT FOR THE PETERSHACK FAMILY
It is with deep sadness that we announce the passing of Mike Petershack, beloved father and husband, coach, retired hero police officer, friend, and avid outdoorsman. Coach Mike passed away on August 7, 2025. A perfectionist in everything he did, Mike served with honor and dedication as a police officer, earning the respect of his colleagues and the community. After retiring, he devoted countless hours to volunteering, including serving on the Sparta Youth Softball Board, where his commitment to both hockey and softball, and its players will leave a lasting impact.
In addition to being a staple in the local softball community Mike was also a coach here at Kaboom for his daughter's 10U team and will be truly missed. Please use the link below to support the Petershack family in their time of need.
