Aunt Beth, Dan, and Kevin,
I´m so very sorry. Uncle Mike was great guy and I have many wonderful memories of him. Mostly him laughing. His use of "mostest, bestest." Telling golf stories. Debating various topics with my Dad and Uncle Larry at Aunt Karen´s kitchen table. We all had a lot of fun together, and I could tell from his Facebook pictures that he lived a great life. We´re all going to miss him and all of his greatest charms. Our hearts are with you now and always.

Love, Jenn
