I had the pleasure of working with Mick at Mid Ne in Ord. He was certainly one of my favorite people and I just recently ran into him at The Greeley Care Home. I feel blessed to have known Mick, what a wonderful person, forever in my heart now with the Lord.

I have known Mick most of my life and he was always a gentleman. He always spoke to me and with a smile and a chuckle had something pleasant to say. He is in the loving embrace of Jesus now.
