Mike served his community for 21 years as a law enforcement officer, he loved being the hands and feet of Jesus. Mike was known to many by his love for fishing and hunting and had successfully ran OGS Tournament Trail for several years, especially tournaments benefitting others. Those tournaments included Rodheaver’s Boys Ranch, Haven Hospice, and Friends For Jesus in the Putnam County area where he resided for 25 years. His most recent outreach was to young boys learning fishing skills and coaching sports in Alabama where he resided for the last five years. He was an incredible husband, father, and grandpa.

Mike left an enormous hole in our hearts but knowing he is with our Lord and Savior Jesus, give us peace. We will see him again.
