Dr. Ratliff was born on October 26, 1944 to Irven and Edith Ratliff in Williston, ND, the younger of two children. The family moved to Spokane, WA when Michael was three and later to St. Helena, CA, where he spent his formative years. He graduated from Pacific Union College Prep School with honors earning him a scholarship to Pacific Union College. He graduated with a B.S. in Mathematics and Physics and went on to pursue and graduate with a Masters Degree from Colorado State University and later a Ph. D. in Mathematics from the University of Colorado at Boulder.
The love of the mountains, skiing, and hiking brought Michael to Flagstaff, AZ in 1976 where he began teaching as a professor of Mathematics and Statistics at Northern Arizona University. Since then, he has been a cornerstone of the Mathematics and Statistics Department having chaired the department from 1981-86 and 1991-92. He was responsible for numerous curriculum changes which included developing and directing the Actuarial Science Program in the department. As an Associate of the Society of Actuaries, Dr. Ratliff was involved with actuarial education throughout the southwest. Furthermore, he published extensively in academic journals, received numerous grants and was passionate about his students. He was an outstanding teacher and received several Teacher of the Year awards from the department, the college and the university. Dr. Ratliff was a member of the American Statistical Association, Mathematical Association of America, the National Honor Society of Phi Kappa Phi and the Southwest Actuarial Education and Research Consortium.
Mike successfully balanced his busy scholastic career with an equally accomplished outdoor life which included riding his mountain bike from the border of Mexico to Canada in 1988. He was a proficient skier, frequently logging 40+ day seasons on the slopes of Snow Bowl, and ski areas in Canada, Europe, and every state in the West. He was an avid hiker, often outpacing his son, Nic, in the Grand Canyon and various trails throughout the Four Corners region. When it came time to relax, he did so with aplomb, reading by the fire, baking his famous banana bread and Norwegian Lefse, and conversing on just about any subject with a wise, soft-spoken nature.
Dr. Ratliff is survived by his wife and soul mate Dr. Janet M. McShane of Flagstaff, AZ, son Nicholas Ratliff of Durango, CO, sister Sandra Ratliff of Walla Walla, WA and numerous in-laws, cousins, nephews and nieces.

She was born on April 5, 1934 in Williams, AZ and came to Flagstaff with her family where she has lived for the past 67 years. She attended Flagstaff High School and for more than 50 years she was employed by the late John and Betty Babbitt and later their grandson William (Fon) Cordasco.
Antonia was several things to different people, but above all she depicted the true meaning of a loving mother, grandmother, great grandmother and sister. She treasured her family and her life revolved around the welfare of her loved ones. She unselfishly gave to her family as well as others while placing her needs last. Regardless of what she most treasured, she would give whatever she had if it made someone else happier.
She had been ill for several years, but her strength, spirit and love for her family drove her courageously beyond the normal limits of pain that most individuals can endure. Antonia was a humble person who avoided being the focus of attention, but her loss leaves a notable gap left by someone who will be very missed by family and friends.
Mrs. Baca is survived by her daughter, Gloria (Luis) Valencia; sons, Lawrence (Judy) Baca and Ricky (Marlene) Baca; 7 grandchildren; 5 great grandchildren; sisters, Rose Hernandez, Amelia Garcia, Frances Garcia; brothers, Johnny Rodriguez and Jesse Rodriquez.
