I was very saddened to learn of Michael's passing. I thought of him as a cousin and his dad and mom as aunt and uncle when we were groing up in Utah.

Mike was such a wonderful person. His smile was contagious and is humor made him a joy to be around. He was always willing to help a friend and just made people happy. Without him giving me a chance and teaching me how to sell tools I wouldnt be where I am today. He will be truly missed.

Mike was one of the happiest most energetic people I've ever met. He was always smiling and excited about something, especially skiing. His happy presence will definitely be missed. My thoughts will be with Wendy, Mike's family and friends.
