I met Mike over three years ago. I was at a funeral for a friend who did Concrete work for Mike, after talking with Mike I found out he gave a special gift to send our friend to a better place. I will never forget his generosity and his love for an employee.

I had the pleasure of working with Mike at MTM Const. He was truly a BIG kind human.
I know Titus looked up to him very much.
