Mike was a wonderful boss, and friend. Although, I only knew him a few weeks, he was very helpful, thoughtful, had lots of funny stories to tell. He spoke of his daughter often and how much he loved her. He was a great person and will be missed dearly within our company. My family sends our condolence to you and your family.
