Our thoughts and prayers are with you, Donna, and your family, as you celebrate Mike's life and mourn his loss. May God continue to hold all of you in the palms of His loving hands.

Mike was my friend and colleague at GTE. We were citizens of the year a year apart and our paths crossed many times both at work and in La Mirada. I'm glad he had a decade of retirement to spend with his family and I'm sure it included many memories that you will cherish forever. God Bless.
Lou Banas and family.
