Mike was one of the nicest guys I’ve known. He was very dedicated to his church, Pritchard Memorial and to his church family. For many years he took on the Basketball ministry and worked hard to make it a success. He also mentored many of the youth, my children included. I will always remember him. Prayers for your family!

Michael was the nicest person. After his wife passed away he sold his home and rented a house from me. Through the years he came each month a week early to pay his rent. He always brought candy lifesavers to each of us. Michelle, Audra, Ashley and myself and others in the office enjoyed his visits. Always positive, always smiling a great person who will be missed by us all
All my prayers. Mike was will know at the VFW POST 2908 in Albermarle, which he was a member to. And he play bingo on Tuesday, gave out mints at bingo to everyone. He will be miss by all. Rest peace my dear friend. Tell my mom I miss her. Mark and Nancy Brandenburg.
