To our only son Mike. Thanks for the memories we have instilled in our hearts, they will never leave us. Still have no reason why God took you so soon. RIP and watch over Madison, Eli, Reese, Melissa and Dad. Love you to the moon and back. Love you more!

For all Mike's family, you are in our prayers.
Your faith, plus family support and friendships, will help you in this difficult time. Surely countless good memories will bring smiles, along with those tears.
Dave has many great memories that include dirt track races down there, Dennis and Randy , and then following news of Mike. He had hoped to get to Grandview to see him in action this season.
You have friends near Galeton, Pa , if your path leads you this way. Blessings to all.
