My warmest condolences to all of the family members," Downtown Mike" was the name I had given Mike several years ago, I will really miss my buddy !! We would speak on a daily basis every day about business, but would occasionally get side tracked on sports. I could always count on him to perform to the fullest, My customers always spoke highly of him also. You were respected by alot of us at Atlantic Bingo Supply and our many customers.

Downtown Mike, Rest in Peace, until we meet again.

My heart goes out to Mike's family. He was a great friend and coworker and will be sorely missed. Mike was my go-to guy for obscure movie quotes and references and we had a ton of laughs along the way. So long Mike, Lumbergh won't be bothering you anymore.
