I ran a PC Hardware site many years ago and Mike shared links to my articles on his site. Sad to hear that Mike passed and hope he is resting and at peace now.

So sorry to hear about your loss. You know that God and Jesus are in the best position to comfort us when we lose a loved one in death.

I am a former co-worker of Mike's. I often remember his smile, friendship, and laughter.

Mike and I shared a common bond w/our son's military service. I know David's death hit him hard and can only imagine his pain.

I hope he's at peace now and my thoughts and prayers go out to his family and friends.

May God Bless you all,
Alan Vance
