Not sure what to say?

John again. We both served in the military. He was in the Army Reserves, I was in the U S Marine Reserves. He went to WSU from 1959-63. I went to WWU 59-63. We both shared ancestors from 18th century North Carolina who had fought in the Revolutionary War. The best part of all was that we both found Christ. Or should I say when Christ found us. He was always upbeat and friendly and, most of all, humble.

I always enjoyed talking with Mike at the gym. I will see him again in Glory. "Christians never say goodby."(C S Lewis)

i will always remember his smile and upbeat approach to life he had every time I talked with him at the gym. John was a good man. He will be missed.

Susie and Mandy, I am so sorry to hear of Mike's passing. I am lifting you in prayer for strength and peace during this painful time. I was always impressed with how kind he was, when I was in a bad accident. You were truly blessed, and I am grateful that his faith touched so many. Love you,

Worked with Mike at Sandia National Laboratory. He was a good friend. He will be missed.
