I had the honor to know Mike through work the last few months of his journey. He honored us a few times by making his amazing, tasty chili, which we all loved at work. He was a kind, gentle, caring person. My condolences to his family, friends, and his beloved cats he left behind. His Soul is at peace with God now. Take care Mike. Until we meet again…..
