Tributes
"What a Great Uncle. Remembering the days when we were young and going to Grandma and Grandpa's house Mike was always there. He was one of my idols at young age. Remembering him practicing pole vaulting in the back your in the make shift pit he built. Of course when he wasn't around we would play on the landing pad. Being the closest uncle to our age was easy to relate to him. Remembering the days he would bring Jane over when they were dating to seeing the lifelong marriage between the two! What a great man. RIP Uncle Mike. We will miss you!!"
"My thoughts are with Mike's family. Jay always enjoyed visiting with Mike when we would run into him over the years as the kids were growing up And of course Jay had all the memories of the cousins together when they were young. He always had a soft spot for Becky since she and Emily were the same age. Thinking of all of you. Sonja Scott"
