Wow, I don’t know where to begin! I’ve known Mike for almost all of my life and have so many fond memories. As a young girl I went everywhere with him and Maryann. I loved his cars and trips to the valley. Once his children came along I had the pleasure to babysit and that was always a great time. Even as we grew older and so many things changed he always treated me like family, not just family through marriage. My heart is breaking because I can’t be there in person to say goodbye and to hug my family. All of you are in my thoughts and prayers. I love you!
