Mike was honorably discharged from the United States Army in December 1972. He immediately went to work for the United States Post Office. After spending many years with the USPO in El Paso, he transferred to Cameron Texas where he retired in December 2009 as the Postmaster.

Mike leaves behind a rich legacy of friends who shared their love for God, Country and Family. In recent years, Mike obtained his Concealed Handgun License and enjoyed his time at the gun range or at shooting camps with his many retired Postmaster friends.
