Mike’s family
I have known Mike for many years from knowing him thru the VA Hospital, when he was driving for Yellow Car and he would pick up my daughter from our home and take her to school, to the time that he spent at Killion Community College when he and my daughter were attending school there. Mike was always concerned about other people, everytime I visited with him, he would always ask how my daughter was doing and telling me to greet her. Mike will be deeply missed, you are in my family thoughts and prayers.
Our thoughts and Prayers to the Kloes family. Mike will be dearly missed by so many. Rest in Peace Mike. Will miss talking to you.
