When my family first moved to North O, Mike was possibly the first person in met. He was in first grade and I was in second. He was a pistol. We clashed at first, but soon became friends. It was a "neighborhood " relationship. Although I never really spoke with Mike after the "Newport days", this still really hits home. Rest.

Michael is forever part of family summers at Lake Okoboji with the Hales, Pettengills and Faulkners. Swimming, boating, sailing and hanging out. On a rainy day, we kids piled into one cabin and read comic books that Mike brought up. Very happy memories.
For us, he will be forever young. We are sorry for his loss.

Kathy and family, So sorry for your loss. Mike was a good man. We grew up together, and i recall he gave me a ride in his Plymouth station wagon to north high when i was a sophomore, before i owned a car. Listening to the same Alice Cooper 8 track tape every morning. Fond memories. Photo is from when we were both 18 just out of high school. Such hair!
