Just heard about Mike's passing when going through the quarterly Trine University publication. So sad to hear this. Mike was a powerhouse of enthusiasm and positivity. I graduated 3 years before Mike but Joan and I saw him during TKE pizza nights in the early 1970's and later during the 2011 and 2013 reunions. Our sincere sympathies to his family and friends.

My deepest condolences are being sent to the Steffan family. Mike and I spent many years together at E&E and many more along the Scouting trail. A wonderful colleague and cherished friend. I was heartbroken to learn of Mike's passing while I was out of town and could not make either of the services. May the Angels lead him into Paradise and may Perpetual Light shine upon him. May all those he left behind receive the gifts of strength, comfort, and love for the days ahead. Another of God's gifts has been called home.

Mike was such a wonderful, gifted man. Besides husband and father, he was a big part of our Glory Be to Kid's family and will be forever missed. Rest in the Lord's hands Mike, and as the Lord himself said, " well done, good and faithful servant". My love to Pam, Ryan and the rest of his family.

So many memories. We were great pals as kids (elem. school, middle school). I spent a lot of time at Mike's house. I remember picnics at Chestnut Ridge with Mike and his family. I remember how very small and neat his printing was. I remember when our 6th grade teacher tripped over Mike's book bag and landed on her butt. Lots of sandlot football and baseball. I remember going with Mike to Tri-State, Mike's college in Indiana for an end of term party. A wild time ! Most of all I remember a good and loyal friend. Mike was one of the most exceptional people I have ever known. A hardworking man absolutely dedicated to his wife and children. He gave of himself endlessly. The lives of all who knew him were better for having known him. The word "hero" is used much too casually these days, but Mike was truly a hero. I looked up to and admired him. He was my hero and I will miss him the rest of my days.

I'll never forget the very first time I met Mike. He had a smile that immediately warmed the heart, a trait very few souls hold. May God hold you all in his arms during this time of grief. Prayers for Mike, the family, and all those he loved. My heart aches.

My prayers go out to Mike's family. I had the pleasure of working with him for a number of years. Mike was a true professional, but he was an even better person in his personal life. I will remember him for his tireless commitment through numerous coaching and volunteering efforts. Mike truly made his community a better place.
God bless.
