We are deeply sorry for your loss ~ Gunderson Funeral Home - Middleton

So sorry to hear about Mike, please accept my sincere condolences for the loss of this very special guy. I met Mike and Cathy on the pickleball court a few years ago. Mike encouraged and was supportive of everyone that joined the group. He enjoyed a laugh at his own mistakes and appreciated other’s skill. And he was the best dinker! A gentleman on and off the court, he was always fun to share conversations. He will be missed.

Mike meant so much to our family. From being a wonderful brother-in-law, uncle and godfather, to being an exceptional man. We were so lucky to have Mike as part of our life. His gift for conversation, sharing stories or asking for advice, he made you feel important to him. Thoughts from Bob: Once my dad and Mike's dad could no longer duck hunt, we hunted together until Mike and Cathy moved to Middleton. These were some of the best times of my life going to Vermilion River and Stone Lake in those very early October and November mornings. Wow, what great memories.

Dear Cathy, Chris, and Gina (and crew) - I was very sorry to hear about your loss. I am thinking about you guys. Take care of yourselves.

We were sorry to learn that Mike has passed away. We enjoyed playing pickleball with Mike at Hitters. He was always a smiling, friendly person on the court and on the bench between games. We enjoyed knowing him. Our deepest sympathy to Cathy and the family. Donna and Bill Dusso
