Condolence: We were shocked and saddened to hear of Mike's passing. Our visits with Mike and Brenda were some of the highlights of our many trips to Gatlinburg over the last several years. Mike's good-nature kidding and joking with Andrew helped make our visits fun, and his encouragement and advice on our music was always appreciated. He was a genuinely nice guy and he will be missed a lot. Our thoughts and prayers go out to Brenda and his entire family.

Condolence: Brenda,
We are so sorry to here of Mike's passing. Please know we are praying for you and your family. Mike was very special to us. We always looked forward to hearing the "story" behind the new "Santa". We still remember the night you both came to our house several years ago. Listening to him tell the "stories" behind those first six "Santas" brought smiles to our daughters' faces. He will be missed. We love you. Jon & Debbie Shoemaker

Condolence: Brenda, Please know how sorry I am to think of you losing Mike. I know you and Mike's family will take comfort in knowing how very special he was and how very, very much he will be missed by those who knew him.

Condolence: Truly, he was a classic♥ A great song leader in Church & former Lindalian. I remember sitting in the Church pews being lead in song with the smaller congregation-yet the Church was full. He was diligently there-every service. He came from such a lovely family. So young-he will be missed by many, for such a long time. Truly, God opens the doors to receive his Chosen Ones....Down here-our hearts will ache from his absence, while the doors have opened to his arrival. THAT is what we LIVE for. May the Angels of Mercy be with all his loved ones in their hours of need.

Condolence: Brenda, please know that we share in your grief and send condolences at this time to each of you. While we will be unable to attend Mike's funeral, you will all be in our prayers.

Condolence: Mike was a wonderful, supportive man and I am so glad that I had the chance to get to know him through Brenda!! He was always a joy to talk to!! My thoughts and prayers go out to all of the family...
