    Debbie, sending you prayers and strength. Please let me know if you need anything.

  2. Mike was not only a great boss but a great friend as well. I worked for him for many years. He taught me a lot about business but more so about people. Mike an ability to communicate with anyone. The best thing I learned from him and still practice in my own business today is to take care of your employees first. He will be missed by many but remembered for his kind and gentle nature. My condolences to all that have been impacted by this loss.

    RIP Mike. You were one of the nicest and funniest men I knew. I loved your dry humor. My prayers are with his family.

  4. We are deeply saddened to hear about MIke’s passing.. I had the privilege of working for Mike at Gulliver’s Crossflites (Chester Junction). He was a pleasure to work with and taught me many things in the kitchen. I will never forget where I got my start. Our hearts go out to his family & friends. Here’s to keeping all the wonderful memories close to your heart. May he rest in peace. Gone but not forgotten!
