May Mike always be at peace wrapped
In God's arms forever. I was a friend of MIKE's
and got to know him at the Huck Finn coffee
shop in Oak Lawn. We spent many hours over
coffee
discussing the world's problems and usually solved most
of them. He was a good man and
will always be missed. His life was way to
short but he will never be forgotten!
