I still remember the first day Mike came in to train as a dispatcher with Everman PD. He was too young to go to the academy so he put his all into dispatch until his birthday came around and off to the academy he went. Mike always had a smile on his face and it was infectious around the office. His family always came first even before he got married. That's a true testament of a good man. Heaven has an angel!! Ms. Mary and Ms. Joyce have probably greeted you with open arms and rejoice. Praying for peace for your loving family that you leave behind.

My heartfelt sympathy to Kris and ALL the kids and Mike's friends. So many people feel this loss because he touched so many people. His genuineness and common sense thoughts were never held back. He spoke his mind, gave great advise and always showed great respect for everyone. Finally, he found his one true love and the families grew together. Mike's heart was so full of love for his family that he couldn't stop talking about them. Being a cop was not who Mike was but rather being a Godly husband and father and friend. I'll miss you Mike but I WILL SEE YOU AGAIN!

Blessed are those who mourn, for they will be comforted. Matthew 5:4

Mike you were truly one of a kind. The husband, father, grandfather and friend everyone wanted to be around. You brought life and happiness to those around you. Our family was honored to be a part of you, a part of your family. You will forever hold a place in our hearts. Until we see each other again, hold the gates of heaven open!

Mike was such a good guy and I am glad we had reconnected on facebook. We went to school and the old Trentman Ave Baptist church together. I know what it is like to lose a Dad so young and I am sending my heartfelt prayers for his family. May God bring them comfort and healing during this time of sorrow.
