Wanetta- so sorry to hear of Mike’s passing. May all your wonderful memories of good times be with you and your family during this difficult time. Prayers to all.
Wanneta, really sorry for your loss. Mike and I made a few Q-Tips together back in 1972 and we also played on the same softball team one summer. Can’t believe he left us so early. Truman Jones
