On June 19, 2022, Mike lost his battle to Alzheimer's Disease at the age of 67. Mike was diagnosed with early onset Alzheimer's Disease at the age of 58. True to his nature, Mike refused to give in to the disease. He lost weight, he started walking, he remained upbeat, and he never accepted the limitations of his disease. He loved his grandkids and went on trips with his wife, Sandy, and he continued to live life to the fullest extent possible. In lieu of flowers, the family is asking for donations to find better treatments and a cure for this terrible disease.
