RIP Mike. I remember that you were always good to me when i was a kid. As an adult, we had some fun times and you sat me down and gave me some advice that helped me a lot. I'm not close to family anymore but i have always loved from afar and always will.

I was a childhood friend of Mike's. He lived across the street from us on Cole Street for awhile. Went to school with him and he hung out over in our yard often too. Lost touch with him after Jr. High. I was very saddened to hear about this earlier from another one of the neighborhood kids. My heartfelt condolences to Mike's family, friends and loved ones. RIP

I will miss your large smile, and good sense of humor.
Melissa always spoke of you with so much love!
Watch over her, I will do my best for her here, but see has lost so much in the last 17 months.
Dave and you were best friends for so many years, she needs you both for her angels.
Maybe you and Dave can send her some little tokens, which only she will recognize.

You and Melissa were so great together!
I was so happy for both of you on your engagement.
Was looking forward to being Melissas matron of honor.
You will be missed.
