Dear Mrs. Hoadley, I have been out of town for a week and just heard of Mike's death. I remembered growing up and going to school at the Lutheran School with Mike, Jimmy Kollock and Steve Grabowski. We were all buddies and they let me in their group even though I was a girl. Mike had the most beautiful eyes that I can ever remember. I went to Eisenhower High School with him and then lost contact. I was so sad to hear of his passing and don't know the details, but I had to write to you and let you know I remember all the good memories I had of Mike and the fun times we had together growing up. I pray that he is now free from any pain and resting in the arms of Jesus. I pray you also will feel God's peace as you also remember the good times of his life.
Sincerely, Judy (Rauschek) Koshinski

Jeremiah, I'm so sorry for the loss of your dad. He was a very special person whom many of us loved. He was my bro and we enjoyed teasing people in believing I really was his sis! He was proud of you son and may you know he may not be beside you in body, but his memories will be and they will last a lifetime. Michelle, I only met you a few times but you should have seen him when he came in and raved about his first grandson! Illness myself kept me from saying my farewell to him but I truly will miss him. He had a heart of gold. My thoughts and prayers are with all of you and hope the fond memories of him will help during this time of loss. I'm sure he's on a new Harley looking for that perfect campsite waiting for tomorrow's race.

my thoughts and prayers go out to Mike's mom and family. Mike was my best friend in high school and even though we haven't seen each other for 10 years I still remember all the good times and laughs we had. Mike was my best man at my wedding and a weekend it was. Take care good buddy. A friend forever. Jim caudill
