I´m truly sorry for the great loss of Mike. He was such a genuinely nice and friendly guy, and I never forgot that. My mom was his 1st grade teacher, and she had such fond memories of him. He was an unforgettable person. Many prayers for your family during this time. May God send His loving peace and comfort for the days ahead.

Man how I prayed this moment wouldn't come, but I know another angel has found there wings and his way into the arms of our lord. Art and Donna raised such a great man, Mike always had something kind hearted to say and would go out of his way to help especially if it had to do with getting a good deal on something , he helped me and my family countless times. There was not a time we talked or messaged that he didn't ask about my girls or talk about his, he was one proud Dad of Lexi and Reese and was a devoted husband to his loving wife Julie even if sometimes the deals he brought home were giant antler chandeliers or bear skin rugs My family will always be grateful for knowing Mike and getting to be apart of his family for several years.
