What a shock to the heart!!!
I know Mike from when he worked out here @ PVNGS. One of my fondest remembrances was from the early 90's. My best friend had come out from Virginia for a visit and had only been in town for a few hours. Mike had invited us out to a local restaurant for a crawfish boil. This place was the unofficial home away from home for a lot of the Cajuns working at Palo Verde. Well Mike, as usual, had volunteered to work behind the counter, cooking, serving, cleaning up, whatever. He made sure that me and my friend were treated royally. We had so many crawfish remnants and crab shells piled in front of us that a local TV crew beamed us out live on the evening news.
Everyone was sad when Mike decided it was time for him to return home.
But we understood.
My last words to him now are the same as they were then:
Let the good times roll brother.....
Let the good times roll
