Dear Family, I'm so sorry for your loss. Mike was so full of life and joy. I enjoyed working with him at Progress Lighting. May you find peace and comfort at this time.

I'm very heartbroken to hear of the passing of a wonderful person and former coworker. I worked with Mike at Progress Lighting. He was always making me laugh and was always happy. I think the last time I saw him was in Walmart in Gaffney. He was still the same outgoing person I knew from Progress. He will be missed by many! Fly high my friend. Praying God will comfort Mary and the rest of the family during this time.
