My Deepest Condolences to the Arana Family. Mike and I were very close friends thru our OLGH and High School years and on into College, including growing up together in Bensley Park with all of the great great memories we all cherish. We lost touch over the years after moving away but Mike will always hold a special place and smile in my memories.

Had lost contact with Mike and other close friends over the years and only recently began searching up old friends and Mike was on my list. Regrettably I never got the chance to re-connect with him and for that, I am truly sorry. I've always missed our trips to White Castle and the mountain of sliders he could consume when we were teenagers!!! My heartfelt sympathies to Mike's family and may he Rest In Peace.
Sincerely,
Denny Kyer

Mike and I were very close classmates and friends all thru OLGH and on thru High School and College, along with our wonderful days of growing up together in Bensley Park. I have nothing but fond memories of Mike and all of our fun times together. Like many of us from OLGH and Bensley Park we lost touch over the years but I've never forgotten him and will always cherish our friendship.
My deepest condolences to the Arana Family and I'm very sorry for your loss.
