I known Mike since April of 1995 (TRJ). You can count on him to show up for work on time. I can't remember him ever calling in sick. If you ever wanted to know what was going on, Mike knew. He definately knew how to read people. He was right almost everytime. If you were liked by Mike, he some how figured a unique nickname. We would laugh at the names he'd come up with. He made sure it fit our work ethics or our personality. To this day we still mimic his famous "Yeah" in a some what hoarse and squeemish tone. I know we have lots of great memories that will always be charished. He was a man of Wisdom, Honesty, and Integrity. Lets not forget he fought for our country and the freedom of others. He earned a Purple Heart and earned the friendship and Heart from all of us. Mike you will always be remembered. May God Bless You and Your Family.

I had the opportunity to work with Mike for about 7 years at the jail. I appreciate his unique ability to provide everyone with a witty nickname and his dry sense of humor. We shared a lot of laughs and my "time in jail" was easier because of Mike.
