Dear Donna and family:

I am so sorry about hearing Mike has passed. He was the best neighbor when I lived in Lombard. He helped me when my mother's basement flooded and I will never forget him. I was honored to have met him, you, and John. He was a great man and left too early. My thoughts and prayers are with you from my wife, Kim and I.
