I grew up with Mike and we went to school together. Although we went our separate ways after high school, I remember him as a kind soul and a good heart; a quiet and confident guy rarely seen without his U of North Carolina hat or jacket. I'm very sorry to hear of his passing. His family is in my prayers.
