I worked with Mike when he and I were on the North Unit at RYOCF. Principled, stubborn, and passionate in his views. A bit young to be passing, I wish him well on his new path.

Mike was a great guy, and I enjoyed his sense of humor. It helped get through some of the days here at work. It was always nice to run into him around town and talk as well, I will miss those chance meetings. Mike just knew how to make you smile.

I am so sorry for the loss of Mike; his wife and children are in my thoughts and prayers. I worked with him as a social worker at STF. He and I shared many stories and vented many stresses to each other. We would also listen to the oldies in our shared office.. he was a great guy!! So caring of others!! Gone too soon, but never forgotten!

I worked with Mike at STF. He was a sensitive and insightful man with an awesome sense of humor and the most positive attitude possible. Many great talks and even more side stitching laughs. He will be deeply missed by many people. God bless his family. Love and prayers.
