I met Mike through Relay For Life of Botetourt. I would see him occasionally for the next 10 years and I knew he was struggling, but he was always upbeat. I send my love, prayers, and sincere sympathy to Carolyn and all of his family.

I traveled parts of the MABDR with Mike. I remember Merton him at Tub Run. We got caught in the rain that day and the bunch of us ended up in an AirB&B. He was good to chat with during the evening there. Condolences.

I only had the privilege of knowing Mike for a few years but I quickly learned that he was a great man. I wish I had met him earlier in my life.
Rest easy brother.
