Mike was the kind of person you could never forget. . He was a hemroid as we all new but all in all he was a very special guy who loved his family. He will be missed by many. . Every time I would run into Mike and Linda. He would always have a smile and kind word.. Always loved going into sears. He could get you to buy almost anything.. We go back a long way from his family living in the farmhouse outside of Pleasant View.to the little house at the London exit.. I remember that big bushy head of hair.. lol My heart is breaking for you all.. Just know Mike is right beside you every day .. watching over you. Thoughts and prayers.

Linda: Chuck and I were so sorry to read of Mike's passing. I have not been able to catch up on the newspaper daily. I was sitting here at the house today after church and saw the news. Chuck has been working in Wentzville Missouri so I contacted him immediately and gave him information. He sends his condolences and wanted you to know he thought an awful lot of Mike. Mike could always make us laugh with some of his stories/antics that he has been through. Whenever Mike would talk to me about you, his eyes would light up ! Anyone could tell he loved you so much and those girls of his...oh my! That it was always you who kept him going and kept him strong you are the light of his world and everyone around him knew it. Chuck wanted me to tell you that he thinks about Mike quite frequently and he will always remember him fondly as a friend!
