He loved all the season of being a rancher and the long hard hours which providing a great life for him and his family. He especially loved branding day and was always thankful for his friends, neighbors and other cattlemen who came and helped make the day a success.

Mike definitely earned his nickname "Mayor Mike", he could always find a friend, wherever he went and shook many hands of new friends. He always had a story, thought, invention, or opinion to share to anyone that would listen, "but what I am gettin at is" was spoken daily. However, his most cherish passion closest to his heart was meeting Julia in 1997, then marrying her in 2008, then becoming a father in 2011 to Maverick. Maverick was his 'Partner". Mike loved more than anything adding Jule and Maverick to his life to make him complete and content. Watching Maverick grow, teaching him to ranch and attending his events with Julie as a family made him beam with pride and joy. The three of them loved to travel together and swim at their pool house. Being together as a family was truly when he smiled the most.
