Mike was well known in our CU community for his vibrant, energetic and resilient personality.
The two of us spoke often, daily...
It seemed he was always up to something, always had plans...
Michael, you are missed

I have known Michael since he was very young. He was a student in my mother's classroom thoughout his elementary school years. He always had a smile on his face and a kind word to say. He was a good person. He is gone too soon but will not soon be forgotten. We will miss you Michael.
