Mike Hughes, age 64 of Granville, passed away unexpectedly Thursday, September 14, 2023, at Licking Memorial Hospital.

Mike was an avid sports fan and especially enjoyed local high school football.  He was known for his photographic memory often quoting obscure scores and facts from years ago. 

Mike was known for his honesty and was a dedicated hard worker.  He was often seen riding his bike around town.

He is survived by his brothers, Matthew Hughes and Andy (Marcy) Hughes; nephew, Josh Hughes and many friends.
