 9x WSM finalist! Member 662, 3372 posts | Just like when Jesse died losing mike is such a blow to the sport. He was a great ambassador and tried to give back in every way he could. We all may argue, bicker and be rivals at contests but deep down there will always be a bond between us all and mike certainly had a big impact on everyone who's involved with wsm's lives. Whether a competitor, part of the crew or a fan of the sport I'm sure we're all grieving such a huge loss. I type this out with a tear in my eye and remember the good times that I spent with him. My heart goes out to Keri who is also such a lovely person and all his family and friends. may he rest in peace | ||

I feel for his family and his wife, i know she comes on here from time to time so be nice for her to see the huge responses. He has died well before his time. I feel blessed to have met him and to have known him. Be hugely missed by alot of people worldwide. RIP | ||
