I remember very fondly the time I spent with Mike during our time in Scouting. Mike loved the outdoors and he always made the time we spent together enjoyable! I always knew we would have fun when I was with Mike because he just had that way of making everyone around him laugh, including me. I will indeed miss him. As I told him when I last saw him, he will never know how much he meant to a number of young men that he interfaced with in Scouting. The same is certainly true for the many adults with whom he associated. I feel very fortunate to have known him and am glad our paths crossed some 15 years or so ago. Susie, our thoughts and prayers will continue to be with you and the family.

Suzie, Jennifer, Stephen, Laura, Dad, Clyde, Tommy, and Mary-- I Keep thinking about when Mike came to vist for my graduation in Miami last year. We had so much fun swimming in the pool and he was goofing off with the boys. I'm so glad to have been able to spend time with him, he was such a funny person and I loved to be around him. I am praying for all of you and wish that I could be there with all of you during this time. Lyndsay

Please accept our deepest sympathy for your loss. We remember Mike from Cub Scouts at Heritage Elementary in Grapevine. That was a long time ago and happy memories. He was such a nice man! Our thoughts & prayers will be with your family. Sincerely, Carolynn & Erik Holt

Dear Tim, Tommy, Judy, Clyde & Mary,Suzie and family, We were very sad to learn that Mike passed away on Sunday. We're grateful that we were able to spend time together last May when Mike attended Lyndsay's graduation from the University of Miami. Having her uncle travel all the way to Florida to attend her college graduation meant a lot to Lyndsay. Know that you are in our thoughts and prayers. We are so grateful to have known Mike. He was such a gentleman and we'll always remember his warm smile. God Bless you always, Jane (Olszeski) and Mike Tortola, Evan and Catherine North Canton, OH
