I would like to send my sincere sympathy to Stacy & Kristy in the loss of their father. And to Ann, whom I knew well when she was on the farm. Mike was a friend and a good neighbor. I remember the days when I trucked the girls’ calves to the fair. Sorry I can not make it to the service. ~ Jeannine Andersen

Kristy and Stacy: I am so sorry for your loss. Your Dad and I met in little league baseball (where he struck me out many times) and reconnected in high school and stayed friends all this time. We had a lot of fun in our younger years and even though our career paths went in different directions and parts of the country we always stayed in touch. He was a close friend and will be missed just like you two will miss him.

So very sorry for your loss. Mike was a good guy. I ate at the diner many times. May he Rest In Peace. Heartfelt thoughts and prayers go out to his family. With sincere sympathy. Amy Lundgren

I didn't personally know Mike. My parents Larry & Sylvia (Jean) Ansley knew him pretty well, they also knew his beloved pal Jackson. When my parents talked about Mike, his dog or the diner where they ate breakfast almost every Saturday. I knew to hear them talk about him, the dog and the good food at the diner he had to be a great man. My loving thoughts & prayers to his family.
