Mike Mendenhall is the current Mayor of Spanish Fork City. He is basically the coolest Mayor of all time. He leads with compassion, grace, integrity and purpose, and never backs down in the face of a challenge. Mike loves his wife Amber Mendenhall like they just recently got married (even though they have been married for a long time I think), and he’s a passionate family man and golfer. Mike owns an Edward Jones Financial firm on Main Street in Spanish Fork, and somehow finds the time to do all of this - VERY well.
Written by the opinions and observations of Kathleen Leavitt, President & CEO Spanish Fork Salem Area Chamber of Commerce.
