Mike was a loyal friend who never met a stranger. An avid athlete and sports enthusiast who excelled in any sport he participated in. He was often found on a barstool, telling stories, surrounded by family and friends. Mike was a dedicated service manager at Chandler West Auto Repair for 20+ years, where he developed many lasting relationships. Growing up in Colorado led to a love of time spent in the mountains- fishing, hunting, and camping. Nothing brought Mike more joy than spending quality time with his family, friends, and furry ones alike.
He will be greatly missed by all who knew him.
