My heartfelt condolences go out to this family. Sandy and Teresa, I’m so sorry you’re going thru this kind of pain. If there’s anything I can help with, please don’t hesitate to contact me. Praying for you!
My condolences to the Family, I worked with Mike many years at McDonald’s and continued to be friends with him afterwards. And he did me the great honor of giving me away at my wedding. He was a great guy who always made me laugh. Life happens and time gets away from you. I wish i had made time to make that call. Prayers to the family. RIP My friend
Sandy and Teresa sending you good thoughts your way. Love u both
I am sorry! I love all of you and pray peace for all of you.
Thinking of you, Verna. Prayers and comfort to you and Mike’s family.
For Verna, sorry to hear about Mike. We always enjoyed visiting with you two at the parts houses. You are in our thoughts and prayers.
Mike really was one of a kind. He spent countless hours mentoring me and caring for those around him. There were things about him I didn’t appreciate, but many more things that I did. His crass humor, for one, has always stuck with me especially “Shit fire, save matches”. He taught me so much, especially in the HVAC trade, and he was good at teaching others.
Mike really cared for helping others and throughout my time knowing him, he did so regularly.
I will mourn him and miss him and hope that those who learned from him and were cared for by him will continue to help and teach others with the time we have in life.
I met Mike through Sam King when I needed heat and air service. We used him several times and he was always very pleasant, with big smiles, and did a great job. Prayers and condolences to his family and friends.
