Donald "Mike" Michael Hull, 70, of Springville, passed away Friday, Jan. 21, 2022, after a long battle with multiple myeloma. A celebration of life will be celebrated at a later date.
Mike was born June 2, 1951, to Donald and Betty (Stocker) Hull in Centerville, Iowa. He graduated from

He was a member of IBEW 1362 and numerous livestock associations. He married Kathy Fowler on Dec. 31, 1998, and together they raised and showed horses. Mike built a registered Angus herd that he sold just prior to his passing. His passion was the cattle industry.
He is survived by his wife, Kathy Hull; his stepson, Terry Folken; a very special daughter-in-law, Kirsten Folken; and a granddaughter, who he adored, Mya. He is also survived by his stepfather, Harold Gruwell; siblings, Pam (Dean) Huff, Melinda Hull, Jeffrey Hull, Neal (Sara) Hull and Jerry (Nancy) Gruwell; along with many nieces and nephews.
