"I was one of Mike's fellow workers with QSP, even though I worked in Iowa, always enjoyed seeing and visiting with Mike when we saw one another at National Meetings. He and other buddies with QSP from the Indiana area and myself always had fun seeing Mike at those meetings where his sense of humor always made it enjoyable to get together if even only once or twice a year. May God's Grace be with Mike and his entire family. "

"Mike is my 1st cousin (his Mom Aunt Virginia & my Mom Aunt Louise we?re sisters). Aunt Virginia would take Mike & I to Meridian Hills @ 7:00am & Aunt Louise would pick us up @ 7:00pm. We both absolutely loved our caddy days & always played a few rounds of golf over the years. Mike was a dedicated worker, excellent golfer & great friend to all especially his ?67 SJA classmates! We will all miss you Mike. Joe Ford"

"Mike was such a great friend of mine from St Joan of Arc, caddying at Meridian Hills, etc even after i moved away we would keep in touch when i visited Indy. Glad i played golf and partied with him for our 50th SJA reunion summer of 2017. Hi to all the Kiesle's and I'll definitely toast a few cold ones in Mike's honor !! Mark Van Dyke"
