I think of you often my friend and miss you even more, your wit, wisdom and humor get me through many situations. I am blessed to have met you and even more blessed to have called you my friend! We'll talk again....

To my friend; I have lost someone very dear to me. I thank God for the opportunity to know you and the privilege to share some of our lives together. The last time we met in person is very dear to me. You were a great friend and helped me through some very tough times. The trust I had for you was something special and a person doesn't find that often. I am truly saddened for our loss. I know you are in a better place now and I will see you again someday, my friend.

Missing you all these years, I've forgotten how close friends are at a time when we didnt even understand our own families. You were always there to help sort through so many emotions and conflicts. You were a brother to me. Dave said it, everyone that knew you will miss you!

To my friend, I will truly miss you and all of your wit. You were always thinking of other people and how you could help them do better. It was an honor to know such a great person and wish that you were still here to enjoy life and see more of the world you loved so much.

Your friend…

Thank you for your unselfish service to your country.

Mike was a good friend that was a hoot to spend time with. He will be greatly missed.

I first met Mike in '93 in San Antonio TX. As a subcontractor for Sat-Tel, I was a Project Manager and I answered to Mike. He was the greatest, most detailed, fun, exciting and no BS kind of guy, I ever had a chance to work for/with. I was offered a chance to work with Mike a couple years later, in Sacramento CA. I jumped at the chance. Working with Mike was always a learning experience and memorable. A couple of years ago, Mike sent me a couple of paintings. They are hanging in my...

I feel truly honored to have called Mike a mentor and more importantly a friend. He was a good man and will be missed by all who knew him.

I met Mike around 1993 as all of us at SatTel were in the middle of a long journey in the Telecommunications industry. Mike was a significant part of our success and growth as he traveled around from state to state managing various projects with unprecedented flexibility. It was during this time that I really learned to appreciate his contributions and admire his unique management style. He was a stand up guy, never short of interesting conversation or a good joke. It was a pleasure to know...
