Mike was my "running buddy" in the Building Steam program for a couple of years. His enthusiasm for life was contagious. When he'd see me at Steamboat in other years, he always was friendly. My prayers are with his family at this time. I'm sure he'll be greatly missed.

Sending my love and my sympathy. His smile and his humor always made me feel filled with his Light.

Mr Gray (and his family)was a great neighbor growing up and my first insurance man when I got my first car. He had a penchant for rolling down his window and yelling very loud booo cardinals !whenever he drove past our hose and saw me outside. I have very fond memories of that ( I was and still am a big cardinals fan!)

Condolences and prayers to the Gray family.
