I was sad to learn just last week that Mike passed away. He was a kind gentleman and friend for over 25 years. We shared a common interest in gun shows. He kindly shared his table with me during the last 5 years I was able to go to the shows. We also loved having breakfast together at Spirit Mountain. I miss you, Mike. Semper fi.

I wish I had known mike for longer. We became friends in 97. He gave me good advise and I always looked forward to seeing him each year at the Albany gun show.

Mike; We placed you in your niche today, it was cold about 20 F with snow on the ground. Patriot Guard riders provided the Flag Line, and the Lebanon American Legion's Honor Guard
provided the salute, flag folding, and taps. Live, no Memorex. Guess what? Louie and Roger were a year apart at Albany Hi. Looked at the same skirts. haha
Miss you man
