Mike was a generous, hard working man with a big heart. He loved telling stories and making others smile. He had many talents and one very special gift of transforming homes for his clients, many of whom became close friends. Mike was creative, inventive, and was always building something for a project. He loved to fish, hunt, eat out, and spend time with family and friends.
