I went to school with Mike. We were in cross-country one year. He gave me so many rides in his hot rod which he used to drag race at traffic lights. I used to work with his lovely wife at Zayre Department Store. His mother taught my brother in first grade. His family went to church, Sunday school, and school with me and my brothers. I remember going out in my rowboat in Turkey Creek with Mike... I remember going to a pool party. So many years ago, so many good memories. I saw today in the Palm Bay high school facebook Post some old cross country photos and the letters RIP next to Mike's name. I shed some tears and will remember the good memories of an old friend. May you rest in peace brother may we see you again someday in heaven. Condolences and love to your family.
