Ever since I met you in your first days in the Marine Corps, you exuded the very essence of what a Marine should be. Despite the weakening of military discipline, you still held up these time honored standards of what makes a Marine a Marine. I will always cherish our times together, whether it was our 2 deployments we shared or back home shooting the breeze. We have lost a great man and Heaven has gained an outstanding angel. You will be sorely missed by all, and your family is in my thoughts and prayers in their time of mourning. Jen and boys, if there is anything me or my family can do, do not hesitate to ask. May the Lord be with you and guide you in these hard times. Love Doc

RIP Mike XOXO

Jenn and Smith family you now have an angel watching over you. He may be gone for now but never forgotten.

To the Smith Family;
My thoughts and prayers are with you all.
Mike will be greatly missed.
I remember him in CCD classes; as a Byan math champion; fooling around with our dog Rowdy; as a sports guy; smiling; polite, someone everyone was
proud to know.
May he watch over you all and help you
through this most difficult time.

I am so very sorry to learn of Mike's passing. He was always one of my favorite players and young men when I coached him in baseball for 3 years during his teenage years, and I was later not surprised to learn he was serving our country in the Marines. My thoughts and prayers are with his family.
