Mike enjoyed spending time with his family and friends. He loved going to the casino and listening to rock and roll music. He had a love for motorcycles and had dreamed of buying a Harley Davidson one day, but as everyone knows, he was selfless and would always do for others before doing for himself. He was tremendously proud of his children, and the lives that they created for themselves. There was never a person who didn’t know how much he cared about them. Mike was beloved by all of his family and friends and will be deeply missed. “We love you Pops!” Arrangements: Royer-Hays Funeral Home, Blue Springs, MO 816-229-5551
