Obituary of Michael Kay Woods

It is with great sadness that the family of Michael Kay Woods announces his passing on Thursday, May 15, 2020, at the age of 82. Michael died quietly and peacefully in his home and on his own terms.

Mike served in the army as a medical specialist and received an honorable discharge. 

In 1969, Mike founded PFC Equipment in Maple Grove. He served as President and CEO of his company for over 50 years. In fact, he worked right up until the day of his cancer diagnosis in December of 2019. His admirable work ethic and remarkable business acumen contributed to his long and amazing career. 

Mike was preceded in death by his son, Steve Woods; his parents, Al and Lorraine Woods (nee Butenhoff); his cousin, Gary (Edna) Gross; his longtime partner, Susan Markuson; and many loving animal companions, including Scootie, Fancy, and Harley. 

A loyal father and grandfather, he loved taking care of those around him. Mike will be forever remembered by his daughter, Ann (Pete) McIntosh and his grandchildren, Nathan Woods, Morgan Woods, June McIntosh, and Caulder McIntosh. Mike will also be sorely missed and fondly remembered by his PFC family and many other loving friends. Memorial donations can be made to the Humane Society. Services are pending.
