I was Mike and Angela's neighbor in White Springs for 4 years. I had the privilege to know Mike and he would always come over and help me if I was working on something. We had some great times and we would always make fun of each other sarcastically and laugh. He would always say hello to my dog and he loved sitting outside with Angela. It was always so nice to see them together and I will miss our fun times each night on the river.
Mike truly was a friend and though I have moved from White Springs, I have thought of him and Angela many times. My first memory was watching them get married at Stephen Foster State Park. I sat there and was so happy and they looked so beautiful together. It was a lovely day and everyone smiling and , I asked him the next day do you feel any different. Mike said Hell No!! LoL,,,,and he said He loved "Angela No Matter"!
I will forever keep him in my heart as a true friend and may he rest in peace. Thank you for being my friend Mike and my dog Bear Bear thanks you for all your scratching. :)
