I knew Mike for 10 years and during that time he was always generous and professional. I know he is in a much better place, and God is very happy that Mike is with him. Rest in Peace.. John Cronan

My heart is broken...
My step-dad Mike was one of the kindest, sweetest, most generous, loving men ever to have lived. He was simply an amazing person. The type of person that literally would give you the shirt off his back and probably did several times through-out his life. He never judged anyone and only saw the best in all, no matter how you lived your life. He loved unconditionally with just wanting to love you for you. He was our "Wizard". *smile* He was my father figure & my friend...and I am saddened by our loss. I am thankful that I got to be in his life and he in mine/ours for the past 14 years. We are all better people for knowing him. I know that God welcomed him back with wide open arms.
...My heart, thoughts, and prayers go out to all his family and to ours. Thank you to everyone that helped him, showed him he is loved, and kept him strong.
An angel has returned to heaven.
I love you Mike.
