Jim and I met Mike and Nancy over 30 years ago.  There was an immediate friendship and over the years we have vacationed, together, had dates nights playing dominos and Rummicub, going to movies and always getting popcorn with extra butter and a drink, spending Valentines Day at Bonefish Grill, and Restaurant Week trying various cuisines. 
Jim and I were so honored when they said yes when we asked them to stand with us when we got married. 
Mike was bigger than life. He was kind, generous, fun loving, and loved his wife with all his heart. Their love and commitment to each other was an example to all of us. 
He so loved his children, Danyel, Jason, and Jennifer for all their accomplishments and goals they  have met throughout their journeys in life.  Mike was always ready and willing to share photos and memories of his 9 grandchildren, they were the loves of his life.  His death will leave a hole in our hearts.  I thank God he was a part of our life for so many years. He will be sorely missed.
