Mike was always one of the good guys. I really enjoyed working with him at Metavante. Mike always had a smile on his face, and never a bad word for anyone. Just a great guy. So sorry to hear of his passing.

So sad to hear the news of Mike's passing and offering thoughts and prayers to his family. Working with Mike at both First Wisconsin/FIrstar and Metavante/FIS, I knew Mike for a few decades. His thoughtfulness, willingness to assist and skill were always there. My special memory though is Mike and I shared common political beliefs that were not the "norm" in our workplaces and we had many great conversations in hushed tones, lest we get found out. May Mike rest in peace.

Mike was a valued colleague at Metavante/FIS. I could count on him to be my expert compliance presenter at client meetings. He was kind, dependable, and really knew his stuff. May he rest in peace.
