Mike was an awesome Faire Father. My faire family was one of the first established families I was welcomed into outside of my own. He always had great stories, and lot of laughs to give. He was a care taker for all in his reach. Very wise. He was an excellent performer and was dedicated to his craft. He really was a great example of a dad and he will be deeply missed.
