We are very sorry to hear that Mike had passed away. We saw him weekly at job sites as we had common customers. There were many entertaining conversations from who we were listening to on our headphones (starting with Dr. Laura & Mark&Brian and ending up with Dennis Prager and John&Ken) to ours and your new Huskies.
Our dogs(Rhudi, Whitney, Shasta, Mallorie and Morgan) always begged him for biscuits, after, of course, he whined and barked at them.
One of our running jokes was the slogan of our business- "Not just mow and blow it's maintenance with care". He had so many conversations with everyone we are not sure how or if he got his work done!! Just ONE of his delightful characteristics.
We will surely miss these visits and will think of him often when on the job site. We work for the Mastersons and have known him for nearly 12 years.
If we were not talking politics or dogs it was about "Mary" ,"Mikey" or "Joey" or where to get another head set because his fell into the pool!! Again!
He will be missed by everyone because he was friends with all.

Sincerely,

Darrell&Ali Barrett

To all of Mike's family I wanted to say how sorry I am about the loss of your husband, father, brother. I was lucky to have spent time with him the last couple years, visiting with him when I was in Long Beach to see my parents. We often talked about our years growing up on Gondar. He was kind, considerate and a very good man.

We are saddened to hear of Mike's passing. We knew him to be a fine person and a great family man. He was great with kids as our son had the privilege of being on Mike's junior baseball team several years ago. Our prayers are with Mary and the family.

Sincerely,
Jim, Debbie, and Kirk Singer
