When I first met Mike I was going threw a bad part in my life .and I had nothing to show for my self I was all over the place and Mike s wisdom . turned me around .he gave me work .he helped me with cars and trucks .I bought many from him and he was the most honest salesman I ever meet .I d wake  him home up in the middle of the night to tow me out .I ran a papper rts for almost 20 years and he all always was there with a smile.He always had a big heart to help people he never ever judge any one .he was a great guy and friend and will be messed.

I have know Mike since the 70's.. He was a very nice man  and never had I heard a bad thing come from him. He truly was loved by many. RIP Mike and have a great time with Jesus and your loved ones. I will be missing you.

I have known Mike since 1979. I worked with him at Hefner Wrecker Service in Fort Wayne. He, I and the rest of the crew had some good times working there. We done the towing for the city police so we got into some strange and different situations. We were all kinda like family because we were basically together all the time. It was a 24 hr a day business. We lost track of each other for some years. We reconnected off and on several times. Probably my favorite memory is we were all at a bike event in Columbia City. Mike had his son, little Mike with him. When we were on our way home it started to pour. Little Mike was freezing. We stopped. I took little Mike and put him between me and my husband at the time to shield him from the cold and rain. Wasn't long and he was sleeping. Haven't seen Mike for years but am so sorry for the family's loss. 

I remember when Mike was at Church (Sonlight).  His love  was so great, would help out wherever and whenever needed.  The Wedding of both you two  was precious.  With Dave Everly cerman.  No better marriage and the Love of God. My friend you have  went to your father's place and  we will see you someday.  No  more pain and suffering.  

I remember back in the day, we were all sitting
On those bleachers at the football field. You had this bag phone that you toted with you everywhere. Your business 24/7 strapped to your sides and then would get that call and Mike would spring off to help someone in need. Those were the days. May god bless and keep you and wrap his arms around all of you and help heal your pain. Amen.  Ride in the wind Mike. 

In sickness & in health, until death do us part, we did and it still wasn’t long enough. 

Mike wants me to let you know that his work here on earth is done.  He received a call-sort of an offer that you just can’t refuse...for an assignment of which he will not be returning.  

This particular assignment came with a pretty big sign on bonus, a reunion with family & friends that he hasn’t seen for sometime, etc.  If interested, the assignment can viewed in full by opening a book called the Bible and reading it.  It’s an incredible book full of lots of goodness! 

His new assignment takes him to a wonderful place where he’ll be socializing, walking Skooter 🐾 along the magnificent streets, riding his motorcycle, tinkering with a big boat on a body of water somewhere or perhaps eating a meal by mouth...ahhh the menu looked delicious! 😋 

As he was packing his suitcase for the assignment he accepted ... he left some detailed instructions for me on his way out.  He said...ℒ𝒶𝓉𝒶𝓃𝑒 you gotta sit this one out girl.  Someday, you’ll get your phone call for your big assignment & I’ll come running with open arms to meet you, oh and Skooter 🐾, he’ll be leading the way. 

Mikes Devine assignment was accepted (Saturday)10/31/2020 @ 3:33 am.  He’s in Heaven.  

Oh, how I miss my soulmate, my wing man on a motorcycle ride, my Captain of our ship 🚢, my one and only ~ until death do us part.  

Always & forever, 
Your bride,
ℒ𝒶𝓉𝒶𝓃𝑒
