He had a tremendous work ethic that started as a boy with Mossers Fine Shoes then later to Dines Machine and Trigard Memorials/ Hall of Fame Plaque and Sign, where he was the head machinist for 27 years. Mike was a generous, selfless, hard-working man that loved all his family, friends, work family and work friends. He was most proud of his children that meant so much to him. As a youth he enjoyed baseball, being in Eagle Scouts, mushrooming and walking with his father. Mikes favorite hobby was riding motorcycles with his great friend Rob Rayburn. He will be dearly missed by his buddy "Lola".
