Always a smile on his face, which means there was always a smile on Helen's face when Mike was near. That's what I will remember, the laughter. Rest in heavenly peace Mike. Love, Allen and Laura Walker

Mike was the man every brother hopes his sister will be lucky enough to spend a life with. I never knew him to be anything but wise, kind, compassionate, fun, and patient. Mike always has had, and always will have, our love and respect. Dynef

I remember camping and spending time at the house with Mike and Helen. Memories are always there when they are good ones. Too young too soon. Prayers are with Helen now. Take Care

Uncle Mike is the only person I know that has passionately stood up for me when I was the most vulnerable. He did this out of the goodness of his heart, the love for his family, and the respect of his wife and sister-in law. I don't say this lightly - he was my favorite Uncle and I respected his opinion above almost all other family members.

So sorry for your loss. I was one of Mike's classmates at St. Philip's. Noticed his Mom lived in Albuquerque, NM. Wish I would have known if he visited her. I've lived here since 87'. RIP Mike. Prayers.
