I was saddened to hear of Mike's passing. He was a classmate of mine from the class of '67. I remember him as a very nice but quiet guy. My sister goes to his church and also will remember him as a very kind man who was very active in their church. I know Mike will be missed by so many
My thoughts and deepest sympathy are with his family at this difficult time.

Our family has been with Mike and Janice on many families gatherings over the years and we enjoyed them both very much. Mike was a kind and gentle soul. He was always there for Sierra and Hunter. We will miss Mike so very much. Our prayers are with Janice and family. Mary Ann, Joan, and Jean Garrison.
