Mr. Mike would come and spend the day with me in my classroom. He would cover general education classroom teachers as I would have meetings with the teachers. He had a great sense of humor and a heart the size of Texas. I will miss him. I do miss him. He was a great guy.

Bryan & Kelly,
Am so sorry for your loss. I have not met you Kelly so Bryan can explain to you how I fit into the family. Jim, my ex, and Mike have spent many a day fishing in the Gulf. If there's fishing in heaven perhaps they'll run into each other.
Again, I'm sorry for your loss and if there's anything I can do please give me a call.
Love,
Aunt Charlotte

Dear Family & Friends,
My name is Elizabeth Bodden-Patterson. I was one of Mr. Enloe's 5th grade students at Ebony Heights (now Robert L. Martin). He always was my favorite teacher, he was patient, kind, and so very funny. It was his first year as a
teacher, while he moonlighted at J.C. Penny, (then at Amigoland mall). I am now 43 years old, and have often thought of, remembered, and spoken of Mr. Enloe. Coincidently , I spoke of him just this past weekend. I can never describe how my heart ached, when my mother called to tell me of his death. I am so very sorry for your great loss, but please know, the memory of his teachings, patience, and wit will live on forever in my heart. I'll continue to remember him often and fondly. We should only be comforted by knowing, that he is now joking & asking God " Why did You let that big one get away?" May God comfort & embrace you this holiday season.
Sincerely,
Elizabeth Bodden-Patterson
