Mike, God saw you getting tired and a cure was not to be, so he put his arms around you and whispered, "Come to me". Although we love you dearly, we could not make you stay. A golden heart stopped beating, hard working hands at rest. God broke our hearts to prove to us, he only takes the best.

Arlina, Tamara and families, our deepest sympathy and condolences for the loss of your love one Mike, who will be missed. He was a wonderful husband, father and a friend. Treasure the fond sweet memories and may it guide you all thru this difficult time. We have fond memories of his friendship. May he rest in peace. We love you Mike, and in the gates of heaven, Dave, your mom and father in law, Pena, Lavonna and Josita will be waiting for you. Tell them we love and missed them. Rest in peace and God Bless.
