Frances and Rick,
Our prayers are with you. We had just heard that Mike was sick. Mike was always special to us and everyone that he met. So sorry that he has gone to be with the Lord. Wanda really loved working for him at Cabbarus bank and Ricky loved to call and pick on him at the insurance office pretending to be someone else. We can just hear him fuss and then laugh. Memories will be special.
