To Mike's family, I worked with mike and we rode together to Byron Power House. When Mike hurt his knee and couldn't work I took his burritos to work and sold them for him. Mike liked to gamble and I didn't but one day I ended up with a fifty dollar quick pick thu a trade with a friend. I stood in line and got another one before him, he was mad at me for a week cause he thought I bought his. He thought it was pretty funny when we told him about it .
Have a good journey Mike and God Bless

Memories of Mike,

When he played slow pitch softball he would always slide into base head first and belly on the ground.
Mike and the kids would make breakfast burritos and take them to work and sell them to all of the workers everyone loved them.

Worked with Mike, played ball with Mike, laughed with Mike, Wonderful Memories.e5uep

We were very saddened to read of Mike's passing. We have great memories of Mike when we were neighbors living on Riverview Drive. He was so welcoming when we moved in to our first home, giving a helping hand with any project, always full of fun. Dave loved playing softball with him also, he was a person you could never forget. Our condolences to Dayne, Bobby, Melanie, Kristin and Nancy. Please know that we are thinking of you at this sad time. Sending hugs and love to all of the Hull family.

To Mike's family- So long ago my family lived on the same block as the Hulls in Janesville. I played with Steve and Mike, mostly, in their back yard. Sometimes in the attached gardening shed and garage. Mike was the sweet guy and a year younger than me, but he did date one of my friends in high school. Lost contact but remember him with fondness.

O Mike if The good Lord allows you to look down and see what your loved ones wrote and said about you. You will enjoy hearing how much you will be missed and loved.
I remember something funny that happened when sister Miki and I took care of you boys.
You were riding on the back of (Soda ) our big English Bulldog around the house and we were chasing behind you catching lamps picking up stuff that had been bumped off of end tables. O Boy was I mad at you!!!!
It all turned out ok nothing broken. Peggy your Mother would have really been very angry.
You boys were a double handful. Just a fun memory that appeared in my mind
So I'll be seeing you one of these days. I am 79yrs now. How did I get so old? Lol I looked in the mirror and yelled "What in the Hell happened"
Thought you would like that one Mike. I love you. Sister Jackie xo
