Barney Borden

Dec 2, 1940 - Feb 28, 2025

It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of Mike Borden on February 28, 2025, at the age of 84. Mike lived at life marked by hard work, dedication, and a commitment to his family, faith, and community that unwavered.

Born on December 2, 1940, Mike spent his years making a lasting impact on all of those who knew him. He was the proud owner and operator of Hasco Manufacturing, where his leadership and vision helped shape the business into a respected local enterprise. Beyond his professional achievements, Mike was also a passionate baseball coach. He mentored and inspired countless young athletes throughout the years.

As a devout Christian, Mike led his life with a deep faith, always striving the live as a soldier for Christ. His faith led him through all the challenges that life presented. He never stopped fighting the good fight, remaining a pillar of strength and encouragement to everyone around him.

Mike is survived by his high school sweetheart, the love of his life, and wife of 64 years, Iris Louise Borden; three sons, David, Brian and Patrick; five grandchildren, Megan, Matthew, Brially, Mason and Tres; and four great grandchildren, Levy, Elizabeth, Summer, and Karley.

His memory will continue to live on in the hearts of all of those who had the privilege of knowing him. His dedication to family, faith, and service to others will be his lasting legacy. Rest in peace Mike; your good fight is finished, and you are now at rest with the Creator.

Memorial Services are at 10:30 a.m. on Saturday, March 15th at First Methodist Church in Sapulpa.

We will all miss Mike so much! He was one of the nicest men that anyone could ever meet. He loved people and most of all he loved Jesus! He was a man after God's own heart! Generous, kind, compassionate and wise.
His life is an inspiration to all who knew him. Now he received his ultimate graduation and his final great eternal adventure. I'm sure he heard these words from Jesus, "Well done, good and faithful servant."
We are celebrating Mike and praying that the Lord will comfort and strengthen his family.
