It's with a heavy heart that I learned about Mike's passing. Every trip to the home office for many years now, I always enjoyed stopping to chat with Mike, even thru his fight with cancer, he always had a big smile on his face and kind words to say. He will be missed. My deepest sympathies to the family.
"Well done, good and faithful servant! You have been faithful with a few things; I will put you in charge of many things. Come and share your master“s happiness!" Matthew 25:21
