He married Michelle Mondragon; although divorced they remained friends. Mike was a loving father, grandfather, son, brother, fiance, and friend to all. To say Mike was an amazing man was an understatement. Everyone who knew him loved him. If you were a stranger to him you weren't for long, and he was always making a new friend. Mike had many great loves of his life, especially his children and grandson. His kids were his life. He was very proud of and he would have done anything for them. Mike spent his last days not only with his children, but with his other love, Jenny Jolly. She was a constant companion and understood Mike better than anyone. One of Mike's favorite pastimes was to be with Jenny and his family in the mountains fishing and camping. He was always happiest and at peace during these times. We know now that Mike is truly at peace. He has returned home to his Heavenly Father and until we meet again he will always be remembered.
