I grew up with Mike in Michigan and just heard of his untimely passing. From reading your memories of him it sounds like he never changed. Great sense of humor and could be just a fiery spitball but truly a gentle soul. I can still hear that belly laugh.
My prayers go out to his family. If anyone can tell me how to call, write or email his family or his sister, Gail I would really appreciate it. Or if there was scholarship funds set up for his kids or a special charity to make donations to. By the way..he
went by Perchie growing up and I can t help but still think of him that way.
When God measures a man, He puts the tape around his heart instead of the head.
