Michael John Good, 76, died on Oct. 27, 2025. Born on Feb. 4, 1949, in Oak Park, he made Clinton, Missouri his home for more than 35 years. He attended St. Luke Elementary, Fenwick High School, and Loyola University Chicago. After moving to Clinton in the 1980s, he cared for his great-aunt, Agnes Beckwith, until her passing at age 99.
