Mike you've been one of my best friends since the third grade. I can't even count all the adventures we've had through the years I'm so saddened by this. My mother loved all of the great things you've helped her with fixing our vehicles and basically helping out whenever you could. I'm behalf of my mother, me and all of us Becker boys we send our love and will miss you so much. Mike I couldn't have asked for a better friend. Heaven awaits you because you always had a solid heart. I'm sorry I could not be there as I currently live in Florida but you and your family will be my first stop when I get back to Jersey. Love you brother!

Mike and I were friends for a long time, some of my best childhood memories are of times I spent with him. We haven't spoken for a good number of years, but the Mike I knew was kind and gentle and always looking to make people laugh. Even if we no longer spoke often, I will miss him immensely.
