Michael was a very good friend of mine in the 70's and 80's. He loved Jesus, and he was a sincere, kind man. I will see him again when I leave this life for my heavenly life. Jeff Jacobs

My Dad was an amazing man. The most remarkable thing that he gave me, as a child was the gift of forgiveness. My Dad not only loved me, he loved me without question. It didn't matter the crime I had committed my would never hold a grudge or resentments. Once he forgave me, he forgot the thing I had done and never brought up the incident again. This gift that he gave, I hope I can give my own children, for it reflects the love that God gives. God loves us where we're at no matter how much of a mess our life is, and once we repent our sin it's gone forever.

I will definately miss him for his big hugs, compassionate words, willingness to help, love of life and so much more. One day I'll reunite with him in heaven.

Mike was a great guy. He always made me laugh and in the short years that I knew him I learned a lot about life and appreciating it. He was a strong man and deserves to be with the person he cherished and looked up to..God.

I'm going to really miss my Father. He was my King Solomon. I would always ask him for advice. He would always listen to me when ever I needed him, even when he was sick. One thing about Dad is he was always there for us kids. I guess from working for the Railroad he would answer his phone anytime a day. And many of us would call and wake him up in the middle of the night. He's with the Lord now, but plenty of us will miss him dearly.
