Mike had a variety of interests including touring wineries and cheese factories, listening to music, dancing, and traveling with Betty. His idea of a good time was working on his recreational vehicles and riding his Harley with friends but loved most spending time with his family.

He was preceded in death by his parents; stepson, Rob Smythe; and brother, Bernard King.

I have so many memories of Mike. We shared many laughs together. He was a good friend, loved his family, and will be missed. We didn’t talk as much as I wish we would have , but when we did we sure got caught up. Every time after hanging up I was grateful to call him my friend. God Speed Mike Noel Marchand
