Mike was probably at my Mother's(Ethel Francis) wake in May 2003. I remember him as a happy kid in the late 80's to mid 90's. He fit in with the rest of the cousins and was well liked. It's so sad that cancer took him down at such a young age. I am very sorry about his passing and my condolences to his family.
