Michael Mendizabal

Oh my goodness, Mike, how many wonderful memories there are to remind me of our friendship. Bob Baisa always brought me to your lovely home and you were the King of that kitchen and the master cook. Thanking you seems to be appropriate again today for all the great laughs and fun Bob and I had with you. Sadly, Bob has also passed on, but the two of you are surely talking and laughing together up in heaven. Missing you so much! Kay Erickson

Papa, I will miss you. The world doesn't seem right without you in it.
You had such a zest for life and the ability to befriend anyone. There is nobody like you, you are one of a kind and will always be remembered.

I will always remember Mike for his generosity and loving nature to all his friends. As a guest in his home, I experienced his love for his family and his love of cooking and showing his guests a wonderful time. He will be truly missed. My condolences to his family and friend, Mary.

Mike was a dear friend of the Baisa family and he felt like family. I can remember one cold foggy day Mike

I am so sad to see Mike gone. He's a longtime friend of the family and like a second father to me. My father was his friend for 52 years. I'll miss my dad saying, "Let's invite Mike!" to whatever we happened to be doing. I love his laughter; jokes; constant smile; and twinkle in his eye. Mike always made whatever we were doing more fun and I always looked forward to his visits. I feel like a constant positive force in my life is gone, but I have very fond memories of him.
