My husband and I both worked with Michael throughout our 7 years at Little Caesars. He was an honorable man who was dedicated to supporting his staff and community. We loved his energy and ability to make those around him smile. He will be missed and held dearly in our memories.

Mike invested in me in a way another would not, and ultimately saved me from the rebellious nature of my past. He taught me responsibility and that everything we do matters. He was a very unique and bright friend of mine, and I will miss him.
