Denise and Mike Betty and I are so sad by the loss of Mike as far as we're concerned he was a perfect perfect gentleman. He was a perfect human being. He was a magnificent patriot. You couldn't find a better man. Now he's now that he's in God's hands. He's able to watch over all of us and guide us on the same path he was on. We're gonna miss you Mike as saw everybody else and I'm sure we'll join together again and if you're in a near future. . We're gonna miss you Mike as saw everybody else and I'm sure we'll join together again and if you're in a near future, and we'll spend our rest of our whatever whatever after. RIP
