I met Mike Mike decades ago during my years as service manager for San Carlos Marine. Over the years we became friends and shared many crazy stories of our lives and the boating world. I will always fondly remember the party he surprised me with on my 60th birthday. Totally unexpected, but that was Mike.
Thank you, Darlene, for being a bright light in his life. Let me know if I can help you in any way.

Mike and I met in Sept 2009 at the Tracker Boat Center in Ft Myers when I first moved to Florida. As he was a Boat Wholesaler in the area, and i was the service manager there, we became fast friends.
Later on he became a customer when I left Tracker Marine to start my own marine repair business. We remained friends for all those years whether he was using my services or not.
We remained friends throughout all the years up to right to when he passed. I had hoped he could beat the issues facing him, but that didn't happen this time I'm sorry to say. I considered him a great friend, as well as a great customer. He will be very much missed.
Darlene, I pray for comfort and healing for you, I know this had to be tough on you for quite a while. But thank you so very much for the care you gave him in the time you both were together. He sure thought the world of you.
Prayers
Bob Lemley
