Those who knew Mike respected him for his hard work, compassion, detail and faith. He loved WWII planes and history, tennis, kayaking, The OSU Buckeyes and card games until the day he died.

Mike was a true and faithful Christian and he served as a model for me. He is now in the arms of Jesus, but those of us on earth will miss him so much.
