Dear Patti and Family,
I was so sorry to hear of Mike's passing too late to attend the visitation or funeral. I have so many great memories of working with Mike in the Cub Scout division when I was working for the Boulder Dam Area Council. You were both exceptional leaders and I know Mike's legacy will live in the lives of the many cub scouts he influenced for good and the many cub scout leaders he trained who then could provide a meaningful program for the boys in their packs. I loved Mike's sense of humor, his dedication and his "can-do" attitude. He will be greatly missed.
Patti my thoughts and prayers are with you and your family during this difficult time. I pray the Lord's blessings will be with you and I know that Mike is being taken care of by a loving Heavenly Father. Please let me know if there is anything I can do to assist you or your family.
Love, John and Michelle Hulme

I am deeply saddened to hear of Mike’s passing. I knew him and worked with him as a Boy Scout volunteer for many years. I will always remember his broad smile and caring attitude. Mike was always there when you needed him - always available to do the thankless, ‘behind the scenes’ jobs that no one else wanted. He cared deeply for the young people of today, and acted on that concern with his tireless dedication as a Scouting volunteer. He was a true ‘giver’ in every sense of the word. I count myself fortunate to have known Mike and consider myself honored to be able to call him a friend. I extend my deepest sympathies to his family and all those close to him. We have lost a great one, but God has most certainly called to glory one of his favorites.

I will miss him sitting in my dads back yard patio drinking beer with my dad, the both of them look just like booble heads watching the dumbest TV shows. I will miss him saying "Hello Christopher!" every time I seen him at my dads. I will always remember the christmas decorations in front of his house and the red flannel sweater he always wore. I miss you uncle michael. Aunt Patti, Michael, David, Julie I am here for you if you need me, love you guys.
