Brad, so sorry for your loss. Mike was always so funny and would always give me a big hug every time I saw him. He will be greatly missed by all that knew him. I will always remember him and his beautiful smile.
BIG (((((HUGS))))) to you my friend, I will keep you in my prayers. Love Ella
Although I have not seen Coach Taylor in many years I can still remember his laugh and smile like yesterday. Some of my best high school memories are playing Big Red baseball for him. It saddens me to hear of his sudden passing. May God bless his family and friends... a big loss for many!
We will never forget Mike and his funny and kind heart! Hockey tournaments will not be the same without him around! Mark, Kindra, Jordyn and Ashtyn Vilneff
My condolences to the Taylor family. My best memory of Mike was playing against him in our Little League days. He was ahead of his time as a catcher. His knowledge of the game at such a young age placed him head and shoulders above the other kids. RIP Mike.
To Mike's family and friends, Please accept my sincerest condolences for your loss. I hadn't seen Mike in over 20 + years and I feel blessed to have recently run into him a couple of times. Thank God, some things never change. God bless you all as you grieve the loss of a wonderful man who left behind a void and great sadness for so many.
Our hearts are filled with sadness! Mike was the most generous guy in the world! During Halloween, he would load up his pick up truck with pumpkins and drive to Spring Lake. My two girls would get to pick out their favorite pumpkin!
We also worked with Mike, over 20 years at KL Outdoor! He wasn’t just a co-worker, he was a great friend as well!
We will miss you Mike! Prayers for you and your family!

Larry,Barb and Taylor family, Michael was such a wonderful person. I just found out about his passing and we are so very sorry. Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. Gloria Sikkenga and family
I remember my first day as bar manager at the Vets. It was a Saturday and I was busy! Mike was there and ordered a Old Style beer! He continued to help me the rest of the day. What a Beautiful soul he was. I have many memories of him coming in before and after hockey and meeting up with Fanny Ogle. Those two guys, were a comedy act every time they were there. They would sit there giggle like to little school girls. Mike also was known for pulling pranks on Dicky Sove and his tomatoe plants. He would always lend a helping hand to anyone that needed it! Rest In Peace my friend and Welcome to the Vets Club in Heaven.I am positive the members up in heaven welcome you with open arms.
Brad and Family Larry and my thoughts and prayers are with you at this very sad time ❤️❤️❤️

The world lost a good man last weekend! I've known Mike since we were kids playing baseball and hockey up at McGraft Park. He was in the Glenside group and I was in the Lakeside group, but it didn't matter as we all got along.
We crossed paths frequently over the years as I played against him on the ice, with him in tournaments, and he reffed. He was a dam good player, person and guy you wanted on your team. About 4 years to go, I talked him into skating with the Thursday Night "Potter League" boys and he fit right in as you might expect. Our locker room conversations were priceless and the laughs we had will not be forgotten. We nicknamed him "No Filter" Mike cause he was free with his comments and feedback. Nobody was safe from his advice!. About a month ago, I sat next to Mike in the locker room having a "pop" and we talked about how we were going to meet at Cherokee for coffee in the morning after we retire, then go fishing. I was so looking forward to that!!!
I know he had a big heart and volunteered to help at many places which just speaks volumes to his character.
To his family and friends, my heartfelt condolences for your loss. I will miss him as well.
