Charles Michael "Mike" Bottom

January 13, 1945 - May 15, 2021

Charles Michael “Mike” Bottom of Petersburg passed away Saturday, May 15, 2021 at Sunny Acres Nursing Home in Petersburg. He was born January 13, 1945 in Tallula, IL to Margaret and Burl Bottom. He is survived by his son, Eric Bottom of Seattle, WA, one sister-in-law - Diane Bottom of Tallula - nieces Laura Beth (Scott) Allison of PA, Lisa (Kurt) Howard of Petersburg, Lori Bottom of Tallula, and nephew Greg Babington of CA., as well as two great nieces and two great nephews. He was preceded in death by his parents, two brothers - Robert Patrick and James Forrest - sister Joyce Ellen Babington, and brother-in-law Kenneth Babington. Mike was a veteran having served in the Air Force from 1966 through 1970. He loved talking to and being around people (which served him well in his job as a salesman for both Sam’s Club and insurance). He loved the St. Louis Cardinals, horse racing and gardening. One of his favorite pastimes was playing cards. He loved to get together with friends and family and play a rousing game of cards (which could last far into the night). Visitation will be held on Wednesday, May 19, 2021 from 10 to 11 am at Hurley Funeral Home in Petersburg. A funeral service will be held at 11 am following the visitation (also at Hurley Funeral Home) with Rev. Jim Poll officiating. A private family burial will then be held after the service at Greenwood Cemetery West in Tallula, IL. A meal will be served at the Tallula Community Center after the burial. All are welcome to attend at the Tallula Community Center. Memorials can be made to Menard County EMS or the Daily Bread Program (in Petersburg, Athens, Greenview or Tallula).
