It is heartbreaking to see Mike pass and the love his wife, family and friends had for him. He was funny and always had a story to tell – especially about the good old days with John. Our deepest sympathy goes out to you all. He will be truly missed.
My only regret about knowing Mike is that I unfortunately only met him 2 years ago, I could tell at that first meeting what type of person he was ,what type of loving father he was ,just a all around decent compassionate man. My sympathies go out to wife Michelle his boys and their extended families, Mike reminds me of a saying that I read years ago which states”how peaceful the world would be if we loved each other as a father loves his children”, to my 2-year acquaintance you will be missed God bless you and your family!!
Our deepest sympathies to the Johnston family. Very saddened by your loss.
