Mike was a very kind person. I was his insurance agent and always remember his great attitude and positive outlook despite his many health issues. He will be missed.

So sorry to hear of Mike's passing he was a wonderful neighbor. He was always very kind to me and my parents. I know God is looking after him with great kindness, which is what he demonstrated to others.
