Don’t know where to start. Met Mike at Hootin Towne (Ralph Marcums place at McKee, Ky. Mike and Joe. Just started shooting BPC and Mike always took the time to coach, instruct and advice on everything from loading rounds to sight pictures. When we were starting Miami BPC, we needed some money for the BPC shooting shed. Mike answered the call and put up the first LARGE donation. Then there were trips/matches from TN to Raton. I think I enjoyed at least 8-9 August National BPC Matches shooting Raton and watching Mike beat the best (what an offhand shooter - chicken killer!!!) A joy and pleasure in my life was knowing Mike. He embodied everything that a Great American is. I’m sad for his loss, but I’m at peach because I know how much pleasure and love Mike gave to his family and friends. Squeeze em off Mike.
