Mike was way too young to know the pain and discomfort he lived with. We met when I was in 3rd grade and we went to Hortt, Rogers and Stranahan together and of course the hangout Little Yankee. Then a few years ago at baseball I saw the last name Ament on a lineup as I was keeping score at my sons baseball game-life comes full circle, my kids and his are friends now. May everyone smile at the mention of his name as we remember the good ole days and know he is watching over his family. God Bless.

Mike was always a dear friend to me and a true gentleman. We all grew up on the same block and he was like a "big brother" to me. He had been in my thoughts lately and I had mentioned to a few people that I wanted to plan a trip to see him. We should never put off the important things in our lives. I will miss him. Mark, Mrs. Ament, and Mike's children will be in my prayers. I will always love you Mike.

We were so sad to hear that Mike passed away. Although we know he is in a better place, it is still difficult to accept life without him. He was one of the nicest, most easygoing guys I have ever met. He will definitely be missed.

Gone to soon!

Mike walks among the angels now.
The best thing that this life on earth can offer...
A ticket home.
Where our soul will witness the greatest show in the galaxy.
Save me a seat cousin,
I'll be there with you one day.
Until then, just remember the loved ones you left behind on this earth miss you greatly.
