Read MoreI was fortunate enough to have had the pleasure of working with such a dedicated operator and far more importantly, an old school honest and caring man. I will not forget what you did for the team, the crazy hours and long stretches of 4 and 2’s done with a smile. I’m so glad that you got to enjoy your retirement so much, so well deserved. RIP my good man

Mr. Mike, I could always count on you for a smile and good music. Growing up, I remember just how loud you loved to crank up your stereo and get those speakers blasting - so loud the house would shake! Living on the Edge by Aerosmith reminds me of you every time I hear it. I hope you and Dorothy get to enjoy more of your favorites together up in heaven.

Holidays together
Uncle Mike, I will certainly miss that hearty hug you gave each time I saw you. You always lit up when chatting about your favorite things and asking about my kids. Conversations with you around food, restaurants, music and concerts were my absolute favorite. And, the fact you still called me “Hagan/Hags” with a grin while busting my chops about something. You were always a sweetheart and so generous with my kids and Ryan. We’ll all miss you dearly but have comfort knowing you’re now jamming...

Mike, you were one of my good friends for a very long time. I am going to miss you and your tidbits of wisdom. Your stories and the laughter we always had. I wasn't ready for you to go. I know you are with Dorothy now and how much you missed her. You did a great job raising your two girls after she was gone. Rest well my friend....Until we meet again.....
