Mike was a devoted husband, father, papaw, brother, uncle, friend, and son. Those that knew him the best knew how truly kindhearted, giving, and accepting he was of all those he loved. Mike loved many things, but above all else he loved his family and his faith. Nothing came before family and God. Mike married his best friend Deborah on July 30th 1994, and in those beautiful 31 years of marriage they raised six children together. There were no restrictions on the love they showered everyone around them with. He gave freely and fully to every aspect of his life, and worked tirelessly to provide for the family he loved so dearly. Mike poured his heart into everything he did. Whether it was family, work, collecting stamps or trains, building models, 3D printing, fishing, or fixing anything that needed fixing. He was always there to lend a listening ear or a helping hand. Now his journey on earth has come to an end, and his eternal journey in heaven has begun.
