Long-time Livingston native Craig “Bingo” Mielke will be remembered at a gathering at the Livingston Elks Lodge on Sunday, December 14th from 2 to 6 pm.
Bingo’s friends will join together to tell stories and share a community pot luck to honor his memory. Food donations can be coordinated with Robin Ogata at 406-224-0218. There will be a cash bar, and iced tea and lemonade will be provided.
For those wanting to honor Craig with a donation, he was a big fan of the Stafford Animal Shelter and thought the Livingston Food Pantry did important work for this community.
Craig, a Vietnam veteran, died at Livingston Health Care on November 11th, 2025, on Veteran’s Day.
