Welcome to the IBA Memorial Page

This is where we remember those who have made this club what it is and, in their passing, we honor them.  Their passion for beekeeping, sharing skills, time, and enthusiasm for the club shine like a bright light in the beekeeping community.  

Mike Hebda

Mike Hebda

Mike was generous with his time, and had enthusiasm for teaching and learning with others at events and in the bees. He was ready to step in and help with that wonderful smile and “be a part of it” attitude. You’d often find him at the check in desk greeting and making new people feel at home. He was valuable in assisting in the IBA Central mentor program. He often said “the more I know, the less I know.  Expect Mike to be the first one to volunteer for anything that needed done. His warm smile, sense of humor, humble attitude and genuine love for people and beekeeping will be missed.  On behalf of the IBA, we are grateful for the time that he has shared with us.
