Obituary For Michael Anthony Bair

Michael Anthony Bair, 58 passed away suddenly on Sunday, June 5, 2022 at his home in Mustang, OK. He was born on August 28th, 1963 in Brooklyn, New York. He came from a very large family, and was one of 12 siblings. He found who he said would be the love of his life when he was just a child and sure enough, many years later, he married her. Michael and Sandra were married in the Catholic Church on January 16th, 1988. Michael and Sandra moved to Mustang, Oklahoma in January of 1993 in hopes of giving their children a better life, and all that they never had growing up. Together, they had 3 beautiful girls and adopted 2 boys. They truly had a wonderful life together. Michael was the biggest family man as well as a devout Catholic. His family always came first, and himself last. His family and faith kept him strong and made him the truly wonderful man that he was. He was disabled for many years due to an injury to his back that never fully healed, even after numerous surgeries and treatments. Because of how severe his back problems became, he was never able to go back to work, which allowed him to never miss a moment in his family's lives. He was able to make it to every school play, field trip, and party. No matter what, he was always there. Michael would go above and beyond to help anyone that he could. He was by far, the best father, husband, uncle, brother, and grandfather that anyone could ever ask for and will be greatly missed by all.

Our Brother Knight and friend Pete Pickett has passed away. He left surrounded by a devoted and loving family he built with his late wife Debbie. Though his body was weakened by cancer, his deep Catholic faith was at its peak as he departed. He will be remembered first and foremost for his unceasing love of Jesus Christ and his devotion to praying for the intercession of Our Mother Mary by the Holy Rosary.Pete was a 21-year, Fourth Degree member of the Knights of Columbus and rose to the office of Grand Knight quickly, serving in that capacity from 2008 to 2010. He later served as the President of the Kelly Memorial Corporation from 2011 to 2012 and put in 10 years of service as a Trustee for the council. At the state level, he served for 10 years as the chairman of the Oklahoma Knights of Columbus scholarship program.His most visible role in our council, however, was his 14-year run as Santa Claus at the Knights of Columbus Ladies Auxiliary Children's Christmas Party, a role he loved so very much. His love of the children was returned in kind each year with a hero's welcome the second he climbed down from his "sleigh" generously provided by the Yukon Fire Department. An unofficial tradition of his Santa appearances was a picture with him and his great friend, our Worthy Financial Secretary, Gary Goldsboro, sitting on his lap. In his final appearance as Santa for us, Gary's son, Gary, Jr., and grandson Knox were added to the annual photo op!Pete served his country and was a veteran of Vietnam. His love of military aviation became a hobby and a business with his son, Tony (See: Pappy's WWII Aircraft Whirligigs and a B-24 Liberator replica pictured here, presented in 2025 to one of our members), and there are many aircraft enthusiasts around the country and world who mourn with us today.We thank God for the gift of Pete's life and for the holy example he set for many. May his soul find repose and eternal joy in the presence of Christ. We continue to lift his family and friends in prayer and ask God to grant them peace and solace.Funeral arrangements are pending, but we will share them as they become available. ...
