Our deepest sympathies to the the family for their loss and our prayers are with them. My wife, Lisa, and I both were friends with Mike and he attended our church until he wasn't able to anymore. I grew up hanging around with Mike and my cousin, Richard McCauley, since we were kids. May he Rest In Peace with his Lord, he will suffer no more.
