Gust, Mikkal Henry age 84, of Eden Prairie. Mikkal was born April 03, 1938 and passed away peacefully surrounded by his loving family on November 30th, 2022. After graduating from St. Louis Park High School in 1956, he started working at Northwestern Bell Telephone Company where he spent the next 4 decades until retirement. At 21 he married Karen, the love of his life. They settled in Eden Prairie where they raised daughter Kathi and sons Mikkal and Jason. Mikkal saw his friends, neighbors and entire community as family. He was a fixture at Schooner Days, Corn Feed and all other Lions Functions since 1969. But his civic-minded ethic didn't stop there, he dedicated his time and insight to the Eden Prairie Foundation, City Park and Rec department and a 59 year member of the Hopkins Elks Club. Mikkal loved people, always there to lend a hand wherever he was needed. When you look up the definition of a "Good Neighbor" you will picture Mikkal.
