I had the privilege to work with Mike closely for many years. Saying that he will be missed is an understatement. His dedication to the company and to his customers was unparalleled and is the benchmark that the rest of us aspire to. One of his favorite mottos was that he wanted to be better today than he was yesterday and to be better tomorrow than he was today. I will always cherish his big smile, talking hockey, and even his occasional grumpiness. Simply put, Mike was the best.
Rest in peace, my friend.
