I worked with Mike as a physical therapy aide when he hurt his arm. He was a lot of fun and he made me laugh. He was taken too soon.

I worked with Mike on many jobs over the last twenty years, from the Colorado river bridges to houses he was painting at. I would like to say how sorry I am for your loss. Mike was a pleasure to work with, a hard worker, and a genuine good man. I will miss him, and seeing him in his old ford truck. May God bless his family.

They Live On

Those we love remain with us
For love itself lives on;

Cherished memories never fade
Because one loved is gone.

Those we love can never be
More than a thought apart;

For as long as there’s a memory,
They live on within our heart.
