To Mikes Family; Hugs and Prayers to all of you in your loss of Mike. I use to drive for the City of Grand Havens Dial a Ride bus and I had the pleasure of picking him up and dropping him off at home on Fulton Street. He always had that great laugh and was a joy to be around. That was in the 80's. I was shocked when I thought I knew that face at Riverside and then heard his name so I sat and talked to him and as,ed him if he remembered me. He said he did. My Mom was in Riverside so I got to see him and sing songs with him when I visited Mom. He is now singing with the angdls and his loved ones. May Mike Rest in Peace. It is well deserved for such a nice guy!! He will be missed!

I got to know Mike when my mother was a resident at Riverside. He loved it when I would bring my cd's and play music. It did not matter what I played, Mike knew all the words to the songs and sang to his heart's delight. I enjoyed our visits and will miss him. He is free from all pain now and singing in the Angel choir! Rest In Peace, Mike. 🙏💗🙏. My sympathy to his family.
