Mike loved Jesus with all his heart, which was evident in his voracious appetite for the Scriptures. He would pray for opportunities to share the gospel and the Lord answered that prayer abundantly! Mike had no greater joy than sharing with others the truth in the power of the Cross and the overwhelming grace of God in Christ Jesus. Mike trusted in the sovereignty of God, lived a life of gratitude for his salvation through faith alone, and demonstrated to all who knew him his deep desire to keep eternity in view. “The steadfast love of the Lord never ceases; his mercies never come to an end; they are new every morning; great is your faithfulness.” Lamentations 3:22-23 Print Obituary Sign Guestbook Name: Location: Video: Image: Light A Candle Candle 1 Candle 2 Candle 3 Candle 4 Email: Personal Message: Personal Message (required) Confirm: Submit Guestbook entry
