Mike had a way about him. He always wore a smile, could make anyone laugh, and gave the best hugs. My entire family holds him close to our hearts and miss him so much! The memories we have help the sadness go away a little. There are so many fun times we had with him. One incredible uncle, brother in law, and brother he most definitely was!
