Mike’s untimely passing has been an incredible experience, to say the least. Personally, I didn’t realize how much impact he’d had on my life until he was gone. He and Jody stepped up to help me raise my kids when I was faced with the prospect of raising them on my own. I’m pretty sure they knew it, but I couldn’t have gotten as far as I did without their help.
Not a day goes by that I don’t miss him or feel his lack of presence.
WE will all miss Mike he was a cool uncle and i wish he could still be here right now.
Love you uncle mike,
Christina Hermanson
I think god took him in his hands because he knows we did not want him to suffor any more than he already did. It would not be fair for him to suffor so god took him in his hands and saved him.
Mike, I just wanted to let you know that you have always my dad in my heart, and now that you’re gone it will make it harder. Every day without you is like a day without breathing. We all miss you so, so much and i wish that you were here. (Plus who’s going to help me with my Math and Science)?!
I Love You with all my heart and I just wanted to let you know that, I will always be there for Tyler and Jody. They will never be alone. They have alot of people looking out for them.
Love;
C. Arielle Brenner
