I am just hearing that Mike passed away. My son, Luke, started going to him awhile back. He has never had good luck finding someone to cut his hair how he likes it. I could tell Luke not only loved his end result, but he enjoyed his time talking to Mike about sports and life. Those little conversations meant a lot to both luke and myself. My heart hurts. Praying for all of Mike’s loved ones.

Michael and I were friends in Elementary and Jr High. We lived in the same neighborhood, rode the same bus. A small part of my life and many years ago but Michael made an impact even then. Truly friends to all and such a fun-loving and genuinely caring spirit. I cherish the silly memories we have together on the bus and at 5th grade lock-ins and talking through jr high crushes. No surprise seeing the positive impact he’s made on all in his life! May the Lord keep you and comfort you as y’all walk through grief. Jesus is close to the broken-hearted and it is a hard road to walk. Michael will be so sorely missed. My heart goes out to all who loved him!

I met Michael in 2008 when I stay with my host family. To me, Mike is my little brother and family. He is such a nice and talent young man.
Mike my brother, wish you rest in peace and I will always miss and love you!

First off I just wanted to send my prayers and condolences to Mikes family. I met Mike back when he opened up his shop at Salon Park and we clicked instantly. Mike was always more than a barber to me I looked up to him like a big brother. Mike guided me through my teens into becoming an adult. I always looked forward for that time of then month when I could come for my hair cut and update Mike on everything that has happened in the past month and get his take on it because Mikes opinion was always important to me. Mike would also catch me up on what he has been up to and the things that he plans on doing in the future. Mike and I would share great memories with each other from our past and laugh every time I was there. Coming to the shop was like therapy every time I left I was feeling better. I am saddened that I could not make his service I wish I could come to pay my respects but I did not find out until after. I am very hurt by these news. Mike was a great man and someone I can call a brother and a mentor. Thank you for everything until we meet again big bro ❤️🕊

It’s taken me a few days now to write this,
In part because Michael and I were no longer close. But at one time we were.
I met Michael the summer before high school through mutual friends. We quickly became friends and remained friends through high school. But all throughout those years Michael did more for me than I could ever ask for. Especially because between the ages of 14-18 Michael shouldered a lot of the weight and carried me through some of the hardest and darkest times of my life. He is a huge part of who I am today. He was so kind, even when I didn’t deserve kindness. He checked in on me all the time, he encouraged me to be a better person, and he believed in me. I wish I could tell him thank you for it all. I wish I could tell him that he’d still have an impact on me years later and worlds apart. Michael will always have a spot in my heart. And I hope you all know that you’ve been in my thoughts and prayers everyday.
