Mickey, I am so sorry to hear about Mike. I will always remember the great conversations and laughs we had with him in the breezeway on Wabash. The last time I saw him we were at Zuappardo's and we just could not stop catching up. Funny guy. He will be missed. Sending hugs your way. I will see you soon.

I loved Mike Mayer from the time I was a teenager, when he was dating my older cousin! I'm so thankful you're no longer suffering and are resting in God's peace. My thoughts and prayers are with your precious family and friends.

Mike,
I'll never forget how you took me under your wing when I started to work with you. I'll never forget how great you were to me by helping me do the harder chores and visiting me at TCBY. Rest in peace, my friend.

Mickey,
You'll be in my prayers.

"Mikey", (as I liked to call you), we will miss you more than you could ever know. You were INSTANTLY a loving member of our family as soon as you re-entered our sista's life after being her grammer school sweetheart. Joe and I will miss our double dates and slumber parties that started many years ago. Thank you for caring about our kids so much and trying to be at everything for them even if you weren't feeling well. I hope you felt the love from all of us because it was there and still is.
Love,
Pam, Joe, Lance, Mandy, Ross, Thomas, Jordan and Sydnie
