To Mike's Family: I started Kindergaten with Mike and graduated with him at Grady. He was good looking, smart and talented but was always so unassuming you would have never known it. I worked on his campaign for co-president and one of our slogans was "I like Mike" and we all did!

My thoughts and prayers are with Mike's family at this sad time. It was my priviledge to be his friend during our time at Grady High and to enjoy spending time with him at our reunions. He was a kind and gentle soul and will be missed by all who knew him. Rest in peace dear Gent.
