I am heartbroken to hear or Michael's passing. He put up such a courageous battle and remained a brave soul in the short time I knew him. I hope wherever he ends up, he's checking off his bucket list with a Pepsi in one hand and a chocolate ice cream in the other. My dearest condolences to his trio of rockstar sisters, mother, and other loved ones.

I used to work with Mike at the prison. He was a nice and quiet guy, and he could tell a good joke. I know he will be missed. Condolences and prayers for the family.

Joe and Mike shared many happy moments.
They both liked the Bow, Dungeness crab and many dinner parties.
Mike often baked and brought pumpkin pies.
Mikes favorite was corned beef and cabbage which we had often.
