Mike was both a friend and a student of mine for over 17 years. He always had a smile and something funny to say. He always looked at the “glass as half full versus half empty”. He was a very bright “light” in this world and brought that gift to everyone that he met. I know he is happy on the other side . Many thanks for all the gifts that he shared with those around him. He lives on in all the people that he has touched. The world is a better place for him having been in it.

To my first born nephew of whom I actually grew up with! I was only 9 when you were born and I remember you always sneaking into the living room very early in the morning and tittering because you thought I didn't know you were there. I will miss not seeing you on line and also miss you and love you forever in my heart! Rest In Peace and say hi to our family for me.
