Mike's latest joy was his grandson, Samuel, who brought so much light to his last year of life.

He loved to reminisce about days in the Delt House, share beers at Polka Boy concerts and eat brunch at Moe and Johnny's.Mike's other great love was sports. He was a loyal White Sox and Butler Basketball fan. Family friends helped himto attend Butler games late into his illness, and Mike fulfilled a lifelong dream when he participated in the White Sox Fantasy Baseball camp in January 2016. Mike also helped others to enjoy sports through coaching the rec league at First Baptist Church, where he gave all kids a shot.Mike demonstrated immense love, strength and grace during his illness and will be remembered by his friends and family as the most honorable, kindest and loving of people.
