I just learned of Mike's passing. So sorry for everyone's loss! Mike was well respected in the roofing industry. He was a guy that I could always call and bounce ideas off. He would always provide very educated input. I always listened. Wishing you all God's blessings as Mikes legacy lives on!
We are sorry to hear of your loss. Wishing you all peace and comfort during this difficult time.

Dear Joan … Please accept my sincere condolences on the passing of your husband Mike at this difficult time. I have fond memories of playing baseball with Mike at the Royal Lepage tournament. I remember him as a very kind and gentle man. May you find comfort in your many memories. Doris
Condolences to the family. Rest assured you are in our prayers.
Dear Joan and family, Mike was like sunshine to me whenever I saw him. He radiated love and acceptance and always had such a beautiful smile. It seemed that he genuinely loved people. Well, I appreciated and cherished his church services, which were genuine; I always left church service comforted with words that served my heart and soul. My grandmother was always delighted to see him and you, Joan, as well. He had an impact on my life (and my grandmother's). This is such sad news that this beautiful man that I knew is now gone. Praying for him to find peace and renewal in eternity. Much love to you all. Tamelynda xoxoxo

Joan and Family: My sincerest condolences. Mike always made me laugh. Always called me "my Dad's older sister". Then he would laugh and give me the "witty " grin. Thinking of you and praying for all of you. With all my love.
