I am so sorry for your loss. Mike was a wonderful man! We came to know Mike at Serenity Gardens while visiting with my dad. Mike and my dad developed a wonderful friendship at Serenity, laughing and telling stories. We looked forward to visiting with Mike when we came to visit my dad.
We will surely miss this kind and gentle man.
Peace and Gods blessings to you all.
My deepest sympathy,
Lori Strausser Zimmerman
