So sorry to hear of my friend Mike's passing. We go back to the mid 70s when Mike rep'd for Roto-Finish. My wife Joan and I became friends with Mike and his Joan and have stayed in touch via an annual lunch together. It took a while for me to research his status after many tries to set a lunch date with him this year.
We knew him as a friend and gentleman who was so very proud of his family.
Rest in peace Mike our belated thoughts and prayers go out to all his family.

We enjoyed Mike's humor on many occassions. We will miss his warmth, and his friendly wave going in or out of the neighborhood, (always with a smile).
Thoughts and prayers are with the family, at this most difficult time.

Blessings of Love, Peace and comfort to Michael Warmbier's family and friends. I have many beautiful memories of Michael. I was so happy to have him as a client and friend. It was such a pleasure to see him each month coming up from NC to OHio. It was Michael that actually got me coming back to Ohio to provide treatments. I recall tears in his eyes when I told him I was moving. That moment impacted my life knowing how I was actually helping him with his discomfort. He allowed me to use his facility for 3 years. I am truly appreciative to Michael and all that he brought to me. I loved his joking manner.... he would always say...'Linda we gotta quit meeting like this." Or "Dont tell Rita, I dont want her getting jealous."

Mike was a very beautiful person inside and out. I will truly miss him coming each month for treatments. He has surely left his heart with me and I truly loved Mike and his personality.

God Bless you Mike! May you Rest in Peace.
Blessings of Love.
I love you Mike!

Susan, Mike, Don & Fred.

So sorry to hear about your Dad. He was a great neighbor for 38 years and he will be missed. I always enjoyed talking to him and getting his help with cars or anything. He always tried to show that tough exterior but we knew he was a marshmellow.
I'm sorry I can't be at the funeral and share all the stories. Meta and I are in Naples and are flying to Des Moines in the morning for my sisters memorial.

Fred we are always thinking of Otto and hoping he will be home soon to enjoy his freedom and his family. I will always remember you bringing Otto over to introduce him when he just a baby. I remember holding him and so proud of seeing you as a father.

My heart goes out to all of you.
Patrick & Meta Prey

I will be back and Cincinnati and will get in touch and get together for lunch.
