So many deep conversations about faith, love and God's calling to medicine.It's been years since we worked together at OGH ER but I never forgot his inspiration to see past the pain and look deeper into the patient's heart for true healing.As with so many he touched,Dr. Mike, has been an inspiration to my career and faith. He will be truly missed.

Words cannot express the utter disbelief at the loss of Mike. I met Mike at The Tab over 30 years ago. He always led by example. Such a man of God! Heaven has gained a champion but we will miss him.

So often you meet Dr's and other professionals who gave up their true faith in the years of higher education and practice. Mike just seemed to grow in his faith daily. How great it was to know that a professing Christian ministered the love and power of our Lord Jesus Christ wherever he went.
