Michael “Mike” Fleming

I had the pleasure of being Mike's hairstylist for the past 3 years. I enjoyed our talks about traveling and cars. He was such a kind spirit and a joy to be around. He spoke every visit of his love for his wife and family. Rest in Paradise Mike.

Mike was a dear friend of mine for over 40 years. I can't recall how many trips we made together to Pebble Beach and Scottsdale in January. And yes, Mike's abundance of frequent flyer and hotel miles always provided us with top drawer accommodations.
One memory stands out as I remember Mike. One year at the Pebble Beach Concourse we had a space on "the velvet rope" to watch the finalists in each class line up for their awards. By some divine luck, the martini concession was directly behind us. As I was in line for our first (of many) martinis I struck-up a conversation with the Keno brothers of "Antiques Roadshow" fame. They joined us on the "rope" and let's just say that many rounds were shared between the four of us that afternoon as well as some marvelous chat about everything cars.
It was a great outing which I will remember always.
I'll miss my friend greatly. RIP Mike.

Dr. Denise, Grief can be so hard, I hope your special memories help you in coping with the loss.

I worked in the Mazda Gulf Region office with Mike for many years and always enjoyed his knowledge and wanting to do the right thing. I especially enjoyed the banter between Mike and other members of the service team - Rig Rigling, Ray Baker, Jack Miller, et al. A great time with great people.

Mike was always one of my favorite visits from our factory partners. Not only his love of all things automotive, but his dedication to his job and his dealers was his legacy, but they only came second to his very dry and witty sense of humor. He will be missed but never forgotten.

Mike was my mentor when I started my automotive career at Subaru. He always had a unique perspective that opened my eyes to many opportunities in my life.

I had the pleasure to work with Mike when he directed Service operations for Mazda´s Gulf Region. He was a team player and was always willing to lend a hand or ear. He was a gentleman. May Mike RIP.

Mike was a great guy with a quick wit about him. He was a car enthusiast through and through, he loved talking about cars and racing with everyone he met. He will be missed.

Rest in peace my friend.

Weldon

Always a joy to be with and talk to!
