Thoughts and prayers go out to the Sharon and family.
I am sorry to hear about my cousin Mike passing. How the years have past. But I remember my family going up to the farm when I was growing up. Talking to Mike as he was milking the cows. He made me feel like he was my older brother. Sorry I really don’t know all the kids. But I want to tell you all and Sharon my thoughts and prayers are with you . Steve Prokosch

My prayers go out to your family Mike was a wonderful guy
Sharon and family – my condolences to all of you during this difficult time. I enjoyed hearing Mikey tell stories, he always made me laugh. I saw him a few years ago in the waiting room of a car dealership while each of our vehicles were being worked on, we had a great conversation about family and I know how much he loved spending time with his. He will be missed, and I know that I am just one of many people that have great memories of time spent with him. I’m so sorry for your loss.
Prayers & Sympathy to all those grieving the loss of Mike. Especially you Sharon. I met you and Mike through my Aunt & Uncle Shirley & Louie Leyendecker. May Mike RIP!
