Mike,
You taught me more in 2 years about life, business, and family than I can even begin to explain. I hope to carry on your legacy of hard work and honest answers for all of life's questions. Thank you for giving me a chance and seeing my potential. My condolences to your family at this time.
Regards, John Stone

Mike, you were one of a kind. If you only knew how much I looked forward to our morning "chats" and business discussions. We sure had all the answers, didn't we! I looked up to you and learned so much from you in the short time we worked together. Thanks for being both a mentor, a friend, and my deepest sympathies to Sue and your family. Tony Kern
