Still miss you brother. Not a day goes by that I don't think of you. Had a drink with a friend of ours and toasted. Thanks for looking down and taking good care of us.

John & Lisa,
My heart goes out to you and your family for your tremendous loss of Michael. Lee always talked lovingly and a lot about her wonderful family life and how proud she was of her children on a daily basis at JCL. Michael was 13 when I met Lee, and Lisa younger. I pray God's peace and serenity for all of you. There is relief and joy and unlimited love in the knowledge that Michael and Lee are reunited. May God Bless you and your family today and in the days to come. I hold fond memories of spending time with Lee and your family...

To the Wiysel Family, Lynn and Joey. There never seems to be the right words to express the sorrow I feel for all of you. I knew Mike as my ex Nephew-in-law but never really got the chance to really know him as a person. For Joey, Daddy is with Jesus now and he is your special Angel now. Just know how much he loved you. To the Wiysel Family, my sincere condolences. May God grant you peace and comfort during this difficult time. May God bless you
