Mike was a true Warrior for God. He believed and lived God's Word, passing that belief on to everyone he met. Our loss is Heaven's greatest gain.
"It is not Death that will come to fetch me, it is the good God. Death is no phantom, no horrible specter, as presented in pictures. In the catechism it is stated that Death is the separation of body and soul, that is all! Well, I am not afraid of a separation which will unite me to the good God forever."
-St. Therese of Lisieux
