He touched the lives of friends and family masterfully. Mike was a memory maker and even a better story teller. Mike lived his life to the fullest with hunting, fishing, camping, golfing, playing cards, and a contagious laughter that was a gift to all of us. He was an example to all of us on how to live a balanced life, embracing his quest of success at work while being a devoted husband, father, grandfather and friend.
