Not sure what to say?





Carolyn,

I am sorry to hear about Mike's passing. I know the past few years have been difficult. He is a Semi Pro Football Legend. He was one of the few "really" nice people I have met in the Semi Pro World. Mike was one of my sponsors for the AFA HOF.

Our thoughts and prayers are with your family and you.
