Mrs. Shirley: I cannot express to you my deepest sympathy over Mr. Mikes passing. He was a great man, with a huge heart and personality who loved life dearly. I have great memories from when you all lived in Monticello. My thoughts and prayers are with you during this time.

Shirley and Kara: Just wanted you to know that Mike was special to me too. Not so much because he was comedic, but he had a giving heart. I remember the night my SUV was stolen. He stopped doing what he was doing to help me retrieve it. After that he was a friend after my own heart. Grieve if you must, but understand he is now at rest from this world. You will see him again in the resurrection. I love all of you.

I have many fond memories of you & Mike from the times he played in the band at Third Step, The ball fields, swimming & boating. You & Mom, as the dear friends to one another that you were. I'm certain Uncle Wick, Uncle C.B. Was welcoming him into Heaven. May God give you the strength you need always. May you remember all the trials, tribulations and all the love you had for one another. I love you, it's with Deepest Sympaties & a very heavy heart. God Bless!
