Not sure what to say?

RIP Mike. I will miss our conversations and friendship. Condolences to Mike's family.

I knew Mike for many years. He was always a class act. I will miss him. RIP, my friend.

I had the pleasure of working with Mike for many years at Insight Electronics. He was a suscessful business man, lots of fun to be around and most important, a good human being. My condolences to Mike's family and loved ones. May you all feel God's amazing grace during this difficult time.

Mike was a true competitor and a friend! God Bless

Mike was my Boss and Mentor for for the best 10 years of my career. I attribute most, if not all of my success in life and career to the mentor-ship, friendship, and counsel of Mike Gillespie. We agreed on a lot, disagreed on a little, but that was always OK with us. I miss those days working with one of my very best friends. God Bless you Mike, and may peace and comfort be granted to all of your loved ones.

May your memories of the wonderful times you shared with your loved one comfort you and your family, today and always.

Mike was such a fun, witty personality. I will always remember behind his gruff exterior how kind hearted he was. He will be missed. Hoping that you will have some memorial up north for his many friends and business associates. My thoughts and prayers are with all of you through this difficult time.
