Post by: Jock on June 16, 2023, 01:07:33 PM: It always saddens me when I read of these matters as we are sometimes taken too soon for those of us left. This is certainly the case here.

MIKEYTEE was a vibrant personality, filled with so much life and fun. You could not help but be influenced by his good nature and need for fun.

Over the years he stepped up when others would not. Maggie Valley, Meeting in the Middle, Planning and don't forget the "Juice"! You just knew you were going to have a good time when he arrived.

As a husband, father, uncle and friend, he rose to the occasion and spread the love. Kind, considerate and caring helping others along the way.

Our lost will be heaven's gain and I am certain the "big man" is having MIKEYTEE work his magic now! I know I will see him again one day but for now I will take in all of the great memories of this giant of a man.

Love ya brother. Keep Smilin'

Post by: OBB on June 16, 2023, 01:23:24 PM: Too many wonderful memories. Not enough space to put them all into words.

The words of Unc put onto a sign.

Until we meet again, we'll keep your chair open.

Post by: SHRADER on June 16, 2023, 02:19:36 PM: MikeyTee was a American Original if there ever was one.

I can't seem to find any words at this moment to describe him better than those that have already posted.

I will greatly miss seeing my friend, until we meet again and get to Ponder in the great beyond.

RIP MikeyTee Zen Master of Pondering

Babe and I had the opportunity to meet and have lunch with him and Donna a couple of years ago when we were back there on the east side. A truly nice guy.....RIP.

Condolences to all of his family.

Post by: Twolanerider on June 16, 2023, 03:31:48 PM: For anyone that wishes to imbibe I was just inspired to an idea by JC. Found a local store that sells some beverage. Including a Cherry Pie that's not bad. Not as good as Mikey's but not bad. Will be picking a jar up shortly.

Tonight at 9 Central Time (or anywhere thereabouts) I'll raise a jar to Uncle Mike. In fact will raise the jar several times. Anyone that wishes to join in I'm guessing Mike would enjoy the thought of one more drunk on his behalf. Feel free to share :drink: :2vrolijk_21: .
