Wow! I just found out while burying my late husband's urn, that Mike was laid to rest in the same cemetary as I have chosen for Steve and I. My condolences to his wife and family. I graduated with him from GMHS and, remember him as a very sweet guy. Prayers are being lifted for strength to keep on living his legacy of life in many beautiful memories, I am sure.
God Bless,
