I just heard the news of Mike today. I cannot begin to tell you how sorry I am for your loss. Mike was a wonderful guy with a great sense of humor. I always enjoyed seeing him walk through the door at Mike Duffy's because that meant I was in for a good laugh.

Dear Brenda,
Due to a family reunion, I will not be able to attend Mike's homegoing service.
Mike served as the point guard on the 1957 (Fort Riley, KS) & 1958 B.A.D. (Kruznack, Germany) Basketball Championship teams, of course all his teammates are and will be forever grateful.
After service, Mike and I continued to stay in contact and he served as my personal "point guard" and financial planner.
I would like to thank you, Brenda for sharing Mike with me for the past 50...
