I did know Mike that long, but what I knew of him convinced me he was a wonderful man. He was kind with a glowing heart - and made strangers feel like family. I was hopeful for Mike and his optimistic outlook on his recovery and was so saddened to hear of this passing. To his family, you are in our prayers - he will be missed.

Dear Patti & Family,
We were so sorry to read of Michael's passing. It seems like yesterday that you two were just kids coming to our home for all the cook-outs we had. Those days are some of our best memories. So sorry we can't be with you but we send our deepest sympathy and prayers. So very glad I got to visit with you several months ago.

Our love and prayers,
Judie & George

Our hearts and prayers go out to you and your family. Mike was a dear friend in Jr. High and was a lot of fun to be around. I remember a group of us walking home from school together several times and always laughing about something that happened during the day, and every now and then a serious conversation would come up, but no matter the subject he always had the right answer. We no longer live in the area, but when we have visited we have run into you both and spoke a few times and it was so good to see an old friend. He will be missed by many, but I know his memory lives on.
