Mike served honorably in the U.S. Army. After serving, he worked for Allen Canning Company in Hessmer for over 30 years. He was very skilled with his hands not only with mechanical work, but with wood craving, painting, & drawing. He was an uplifting person for those that were around him and created new friendships wherever he went. Outings with his wife to Burger King were always special for the employees that worked there. His kind heart and love will be missed dearly by his family and friends.
