Sunday evening Michael was serenaded into the arms of his Savior with songs of praise from his children and their friends, a fitting tribute to Mike’s commitment to be a great husband, father and friend.
Mike had a unique way of making special relationships with children. He led youth Bible studies, and was an active leader in Indian Guides and Indian Princesses.
Although successful as a businessman, Mike’s priorities in life were his commitment to Jesus Christ as his Lord, his family, his friends and to God’s work in the world. Mike loved to share his gift of hospitality with others. High energy and achievement marked Mike’s life.

He received a law degree from Vanderbilt University in 1982 and practiced law in Grand Rapids before commencing his career with A+Partners a marketing firm specializing in shows and exhibits headquartered in Warren, MI.
Mike was an active member of Kensington Community Church and played important roles in the growth and development of the church.
