Actions speak louder than words and while Michael “Mike” Worthington was not shy about expressing his opinions, his deeds are what will leave a lasting legacy in the city of Humboldt and for its citizens.
Worthington died Tuesday evening, Nov. 1, in Pipua, OH, where he was visiting. He was 73.
Worthington was two months shy of completing his fifth year on the Humboldt City Council as an at large member. Prior to that he served 12 years on the Humboldt Parks and Recreation Board.
“It was a total surprise,” Humboldt City Administrator Cole Bockelmann said of hearing the news about Mike. “I know he was visiting family and I just talked to him last week to tell him about what happened at the special meeting (Oct. 22).
