Throughout high school Mike was was one of my best friends and a constant companion. We traveled many roads together; all of which rekindle fond memories. I will always remember Mike's unselfishness. Whatever he had, everone had. We reunited on several occasions throughout the years and it seemed as if we never parted. The past 10 years were very difficult for all; I'm sure. Be proud of Mike's fighting spirit. I wouldn't have expected anything less! May he rest in peace and may God bless all of the family members who suppoorted him throughout the difficult times.

My nephew, Jeff Eudy, was in the nursing home with Mike at Peak Resources. Jeff thought the world of Mike and developed a close friendship with him while he was there. I don't know how Jeff would have gotten through the days there without Mike's company. I am very sorry to hear of his passing. I pray that God will give you comfort and strength to get through this loss.

So sorry to hear of Michael's passing. I lived near the Bailey's when we were kids. I'll remember the boys riding their bikes, etc. and Mike and friend (Wayne Harkey)coming to one of our MHHS class of '68 reunions. Dan Hope, Wayne, and Mike were friends.
My thoughts are with the family. May God comfort you now and always.
