To Mike’s family, please accept my sincere condolences at this difficult time. I met Mike back in 1981 at church camp, and we became good buddies, and shared some really fond memories with our small band of church camp friends. I’ve always respected and looked up to Mike. He had a tough skin, but a gentle sweet spirit underneath. As life took us in different directions, I never lost the memory of my buddy Mike; he was truly one of a kind. I will continue to cherish those memories. As God has promised, I will see you again one day my friend. Until then..

Joe, Lil, Mitch,
My sincere condolences for your loss of Mike.
He was a good friend, we hung out and laughed, and enjoyed life together in our teenage years.
He drove all the way to TN with my Cousin Steve Wallen, to be groomsmen in my late wife’s and I’s wedding.
Although Mike is no longer here on this earth, his spirit and the good things he taught and lived will carry on through his children, grandchildren, family & friends.
Mike, look forward to seeing you in heaven my friend!
Blessings on you all,
Joe Dotson
