Mike and I have been friends since we could walk. We lived two houses apart for years growing up. We have gone through good times and some not so good. He was a member of Jane and my wedding party. One thing that he did that I could never forgive him for was being a dag gone packer fan!
I must say that there are two thing that changed his life for the better. First and possibly most important was meeting and marrying Donna! The second was finding God.
Jane and I sorry for your loss Donna. May he Rest In Peace..
Please let us know if there’s anything we can do
Donna, our thoughts and prayers are with you with the loss of Mike. He was a great, funny God loving man.
So sad for your loss, but so happy Mike found Jesus. He was one of a kind and never at a loss for words. Our hearts go out to you Donna and your entire family. May God give you strength and peace. 🙏✝️🙏 Steve & Cathy
