Mike loved life. He was curious and was always learning new crafts. He was excited to be alive and to bring joy to people. And that he did.
He is survived by his loving wife, Denise and family, including his two sons, a stepson, a stepdaughter, eight grandchildren and five great grandchildren. Mike's legacy of love and faith will continue to inspire those who knew him.
