So sorry for your loss. Mike was a dear person, giving, kind and loved by many. He will be sadly missed. He helped my brother, did odd jobs for my dad, he was a very dear friend, and a kind soul. I was blessed to have known him for the last 27 years. He even took me fishing once! He was a blessing to everyone he met. Julie B.
