MICHAEL RIEKEN

I don´t know if anyone will see this after so long, but I am going to try. My name is Melody and Mike was my cousin. He was the same age as my brother Greg. I lost touch with the family many years ago and have been trying to find contact information for them. I am saddened by the death - too young - of Mike. If any surviving family wants to contact me, please do. 5034079361.

Mike was a good frend of mine . I will miss him . He and i had a good friendship . He would help anyone he could make anything out of nothing it seamed. Him and i were alike in that way. He always enjoyed talking about cars and life and fixing things together. i would stop bye from time to time and he always had a way of keeping me arownd working on something. a quad clutch a go cart i built wen i was 16 he seen me riding it one day. He then went and started to build one too. I helped him...

I'm one of Mike's lil sisters I recently went back to the little backwoods town we lived in when we were younger.. from the Junction heading towards the little town came up to a spot in the road I had a flashback just me (13yrs) and Mike (16yrs) I think we ran out of gas so we had to walk no cell phones back then and it was pitch dark no flashlight couldn't see our hands in front of our faces I was really scared and froze. ....afraid to step forward Mike says okay give me your hand this...

Mike was the best mechanic I've ever known, he had a true gift. Mike taught me how to take care of my car, which saved me some cash! I never needed another mechanic. He will be missed by many. He can finally rest.
