Michael Ferry
December 21, 1937 ~ September 22, 2025
Michael Ray Ferry, 87, passed away on Monday, September 22, 2025, in Cedar Rapids, Iowa. He was the son of McDonald and Onilee Ferry, the fourth of eleven children. Mick grew up and graduated high school in Boone, Iowa in 1957. He later joined the Army, serving his time in Germany.
Upon being honorably discharged, he returned to Iowa. Though he had a variety of jobs over the years, his first love was music. Mick played with bands around the state and eventually made his way to Arizona, Indiana, and finally back home to Iowa. Sadly, Alzheimer’s robbed him of his livelihood.
Mick leaves behind his loving brothers, Terry (Gail) Ferry of Vail, Colorado, Jim (Liz) Ferry of Swisher, Tom (Sue) Ferry of Wallace, Idaho, Kevin (Beth) Ferry of Kingman, Arizona, and Kelly Ferry of Meadview, Arizona. He is also survived by Shawn Garcia, Tim Ferry, and Mark Ferry; sisters-in-law, Carolyn Graybeal, Kay Ferry, Karen Ferry, and Annie Ferry; and special cousin, Doug Smith. He was preceded in death by his parents; sister, Shirley Hill, brothers, Patrick, John, Dennis and Tim Ferry; and brothers-in-law, All Hill and Bob Graybeal.
Special thanks are extended to Evergreen Estates, who gave him such loving care.
