To the family of Mike, My heart goes out to each of you during this time of mourning the loss of a son, brother, husband, father and friend. I have fond memories of neighbors on Executive Ave in Crooks, if there was 1 child outside there were easily 8-10 kids playing. When someone you love becomes a memory, that memory becomes a treasure. God's has his arms around each of you for healing of pain and sorrow along with strength and guidance.
