Krechel, Michael Louis Tuesday, October 5, 2021. Beloved husband for 18 years of Sandra Lee Krechel (nee Mettler); dearest father of Michael (Daniella) Krechel; dear brother of Don Krechel; loved nephew of Doris Cocos; preceded in death by his parents Don and Carol Krechel, and aunt Janet Gummels; our dear brother-in-law, uncle, cousin and friend to many.
Mike loved his Elks family, golf, animals, the Cardinals and Blues, along with his job at Holt Electric and his 2003 Corvette anniversary edition. He held a special place in his heart for those who served our country.
Services: Funeral at KUTIS SOUTH COUNTY CHAPEL, 5255 Lemay Ferry Rd. Tuesday, October 12 at 12 noon. Interment Park Lawn Cemetery. In lieu of flowers, memorials to Crestwood Elks Lodge 2503 (Where he was a past Exalted Ruler) or to Backstoppers appreciated. Visitation Monday 4-8 p.m.
My deepest sympathy to Mikes’s entire family, but especially to Sandy. Mike was her soul mate and best friend, from the first day they met at KT’s they, were in love. Mike and Sandy had a wonderful happy, fun marriage, Mike was dedicated to his wife, she came first in everything he did. We have wonderful memories to hold onto, even though Mike was much too young to go “home” he will always be with us. There are no words to comfort Sandy, all I can offer are my prayers for peace to get through the coming days. Sandy is loved by many and will be in my prayers for strength.
Will always remember his loyalty and
Pride to be a member of Crestwood
Elks and serve as Exalted Ruler.
Praying for the family and Sandy!
Mike was a brother Elk and a friend who will be greatly missed.
His friendship at the lodge and the good times we had on the golf course will especially be remembered.

Sandy and Michael,
I truly can not express how sadden I am by Mike’s passing. I have worked with Mike for awhile, he was my right hand and always willing to help me. I could not be happier though to have met this great person. We became more friends than work associates. Mike’s love of the police and military, are something we shared. I will keep him and those who serve in my prayers.
Please contact me if I can help you in anyway
