I´ve known Mike my whole life. We went camping with Mike and Sue in Oscoda and Mike would take take my sister and I fishing. We would have to wake up early to get out on the boat. He always made everything fun with his easy going personality and great laugh. I remember the silly parties and Halloween costumes, little pillow people, and the pumpkin contests. So many great memories of a great man. I will miss you terribly Mike. I love you!
