Mike was a part of my life from the time I was 16 years old and had him for a retreat at Holy Names in Spokane. I was married to his nephew and he become and remained a part of my family for the rest of his life. His life was centered around making community, wherever he was. His kindness and non-judgmental attitude will be missed. As with his 3ntire life, carried his final illness with grace and remained positive throughout his life.
