Words cannot express my sorrow for the loss of a dear friend. He will be forever remembered for the kind person he was. He touched so many people. He never missed the opportunity to help someone in need. I will remember his laugh, his jokes, his stories and most of all the true friend and gentleman that he was.

Keely, I know James and I have not been around much. We thought of y'all often. James and I were just talking the other day how Mike could make anyone laugh. We always had such a great time with him. Loved how he could sing, he had an amazing voice. He will be dearly missed by many. Please let us knowbif there is anything we can do.

Words can't describe how sad we are to learn of Mike's passing, Keely. We speak of him so often and of the wonderful times we had when John drove for him...he was such a fun person to be around and will be greatly missed. His heart was bigger than life itself, he would do anything for anyone...a very special man who John and I have been blessed to know. God be with you and your family at this most heartbreaking time. Our deepest most heartfelt sympathies to you all.
