To Mike; Meet you when you worked for Graid Equipment Co, and we became good friends. Enjoying the talks about our Navy times in WW II. Different ships but the same war.
Always had a good laugh and enjoyed the visits when we run into each other. A very contagious laughter and a joy to anyone that had the pleasure of knowing you. Thanks for sharing and R.I.P.
Eternal life grant him Lord and let perpetual life shine upon him.
Your friend,
