Damn, I don't know you Mike, but I've read many of your posts. Please hang in there. Wishing you and your family all the best.

As Doug posted... Looking forward to Wed. I regret that all of my street worthy junk is apart, driving up to see Mike in anything other than a Pontiac just doesn't seem right! See you soon buddy!

Never met Mike personally but always enjoyed the quality and style of his posts here and the work he does at POCI...
So another 100$ from across the pond

Never met Mike either but have appreciated his presence here and he's obviously a positive influence in many lives. More prayers and another Benjamin sent. Mark O.

If anyone from the Cincinnati, Northern KY area want to ride along, follow us, or have us take something to him personally when we go up Wednesday, PM, email or text me and we'll get it to Mike.

HA! I have that bucket of brackets in my garage! He didn't have room to bring them home so he left them in the bed of my truck when he left Norwalk THEN called me and said I was bringing them home for him!!! Sneaky bastard!

Mike has answered many of my questions that I had about my GT-37. We never met but it feels like we knew each other. My thoughts are with Mike and his family.

LOL!!!

Part of what makes Mike, Mike.

From my experience, the man will go to the ends of the earth for a friend. ...And he'll stick his boot up your arse if you deserve that, too!

Mike, I'm sorry to hear of this.


I and my wife have you in our prayers.
If there was still a Thanks button, I would Thank You again for every thing you have done.
