Mike was such a wonderful brother, sweet, funny & kind. He was so much like our mother. I’ll miss our phone calls, puzzle times and scary movies. Miss you and love you more than you’ll ever know.

I've known Mike for many years, and always enjoyed his company. He spent several nights at my home years ago with his bro. Larry and his Uncle Bob. I'll never forget the time I went to the store and left Bob to babysit my baby. When I came home, Mike had quite a story to tell, of how she needed a diaper change, in the worst way. And of course Bob talked him into changing her. He said, I didn't know something that small could make such a mess, and smell so bad. We laughed. I asked him if I needed to check her. He assured me, he had done a good job. And he did. I have many fond memories of our times together. And even though we hadn't seen each other much in the last few years, I'll miss him and always think of him fondly. God bless and protect his loved ones.
