Mike will be missed by many. I first met Mike riding the school bus when I was in Junior High in Grafton WV. For some reason I had stuck my tongue out at Mike and he reached down and got dirt off the bus floor and stuck it on my tongue. I pretty sure he told me to stick it out a second time when he did this. We laughed about it later. You couldn’t stay mad at Mike. Then when I was teaching the foremen in the coal mines how to use a computer, I seen Mike again. We remembered that day on the bus and he said thought I would get back at him for putting the dirt on my tongue, but I didn’t do anything. We just laughed about the memory and went on. Sorry for this loss for all family and friends. May God comfort you and give you strength in the days to come.
