Mick,
So many days and months have passed by since you've been gone. I think of you so so very much .... when I see a beautiful bird ... I think of your always so gentle side ... when tears would fall as you would speak of something very near and dear to your heart.
I miss you so much!
I love you with all my heart!

I have lost contact with Mickey since our early youth, but thought of him often. We were in the boy scouts together and our first double dates taking our girl friends to a movie downtown. Many great memories.
So sorry for his family at this time.

Mike was always a man of integrity and someone to look up to. His Christian witness was always there as he was committed to the God we serve. I have worked around and beside him on many occasions at Naval Ordnance and Raytheon and it was always a good experience. Sympathy for the family. Mike you will be missed more than our words could ever express. He is now at his Fathers home and God is there to comfort his family.
