He worked as a Federal employee for the Department of the Army and then the General Services Administration for 31 years, retiring in 2008. During these years, Mike also had a Home Improvement business, working evenings and weekends until retirement. He said he liked to stay busy.

During retirement, Mike was very active in the American Legion, he was Post Commander three times and Department of Kentucky Commander 2018-19, National American Legion Press Association President 2014-15, working right up until his passing. was a current member of the Moose.

He enjoyed; riding his motorcycle, collecting and shooting guns, working around the house doing home improvement jobs, having friends over for parties, writing editorial articles for the American Legion, and in recent years, painting yard gnomes. Though all of these things made him happy, he said spending time with his loving wife Nancy, traveling, and doing things they both loved was his favorite.
