With a heavy heart I'm posting the loss of an excellent steel player, great friend and wonderful man.
Mike Meese of Dover Ohio passed away Friday, January 19 2018. No details are available at this time. Cause of death may have been heart attack. Only speculation at this point.
Mike was always a huge part of the Hummingbird Steel Celebrations as well as having his own band and supporting local music and especially the steel guitar.
Mike was loved by many and will be remembered for his calm spirit and joyous smile.Always the jokester and slow to anger. I miss you already my friend. Go rest high.

I'm sorry to hear this news and send my condolences to his family and close friends. I didn't know Mike well but saw him at many steel guitar shows and conventions. I will never forget his open, friendly smile that never seemed to leave his face; a good lesson for all of us about how to make the lives of others a little bit brighter. Rest in peace, Mike; you left us too soon.

| Mike was always one of my favorite people (he, and his wonderful family), and one of the best steel players, I've ever known! We'll all sure miss that smile, and those Bibs! I'm proud to have called him, My Friend! -Jake- |

| Sad news indeed! I only knew Mike from crossing paths occasionally doing club work some years ago - he always had a good word to say and was a great steel player! |

Mike and I played in Roselyn's Music Band years back. Excellent steel player enjoyed going to the jams and steel celebrations to see him play. Always a smile on his face 
Our thoughts and prayers are with the family and friends.

Sorry to hear this, Rick. I know you and several others Ohio steelers posting here were great friends with Mike. I had the pleasure of meeting him a time or two myself.
