I've been out of town and was shocked to hear of Mike's passing. He's been a good friend and neighbor for many years. I will miss his visits in our yard; I'd be doing yard work as he drove by and he'd always stop to say hello, and share a funny story. God must have needed another angel...

Thoughts and prayers go out to the family of Mike.
I live behind Mike and I would also see him at the Town and Country Shell. He was gracious enough to play Santa for my daughter last year. What memories he left with my family.
RIP Mike
