    I’m saddened to hear that Mike has passed. We had many great times growing up in the same nieghborhood and schools. We would spend countless hours at Boys Club playing basketball and little league baseball. I could always count on Mike to be on my side during any conflict, he was a good friend. Prayers to all Mike’s family and extended friends. Fly high to the Angels my friend. GOD Bless…✝️
