What a shock to hear this news! I worked with Mike at Middleton Ford, 25 years ago. Before that, I was at Edgewood College, where Mike's dad, Bernie, was a security guard legend! My deepest sympathy to the family.

I worked with Mike at Hesser Toyota. We didn't work together that long but we became close. He was a very gracious individual and was always trying to be the best he could at the job he had. He will be missed.
