Mike always looked at the positive side of everything, no matter the situation. Even when you asked how he was doing, he would reply, I'm doing OK. He was the best brother-in-law I could ever ask for, for my baby sister Helen. Family meant everything to him and he instilled that in his children and grandchildren. If you know any of them at all, you know exactly what I mean, they are a reflection of him. They are a very loving, caring, thoughtful and unselfish family. I love each and every one of them and pray the good LORD above, helps them get thru his passing. He will be watching over each of them and may they find comfort knowing this. Love Ant Jane.

I remembered going to grocery story with my Uncle Mike and my cousin, Stacy was a toddler at the time. I was excited pushing the buggy down the aisle and made her giggle. A few second later, I saw a display of coffee in a glass bottle crashing to the floor. I didn't have time to run and hide. Uncle Mike said, '"Well, we were lucky we didn't have the pay for the damage". What I love about Uncle Mike is he didn't get mad or fuss at me. He was calm, cool, and collective. I never seen him mad or raise his voice. He is truly missed and ❤️(loved) by all!
