Oh Mike, what can I say about Mike that everyone doesn't already know!
Mike was born in July of 1984. He grew up in Alpena MI with his mom, Mary, sister, Cristie, and his aunts and uncles who helped shape him to who he is today. Mike and I met at our youth group at Word of Life Church. I did not understand why this popular, very outgoing, loud senior (totally opposite of me) was trying to talk with me...turns out he liked me...and I liked him. We started dating and in 2008 got married right after Christmas.
On our very first date Mike told me he had Cardiomyopathy and that his dad had passed away from it. He asked me if that is something I was willing to signup for, after a couple days of researching, talking, and praying I decided that this was something I was willing to journey with him...not really knowing or understanding what that journey would be.
Mike went to school at Cornerstone University and majored in Bible and Business Administration. He thought he would become a Youth Pastor but God had different plans. God has opened the door one right after another for Mike on his career journey from Huntington Bank, to Isabella Bank, and now Fifth Third Bank. All these positions, whether we knew it or not, prepared him for the next and he is excelling in his career and position. I think it is safe to say, we are all very proud of him.
Mike's time with his dad was cut short, but the years that he had have proven to be engrained in his spirit, morals, ethics, and the way he parents. Mike is an exceptional dad to our two boys, Blake and Easton. They love to wrestle, although that has slowed down, now the boys are in wrestling through the school and we all get to learn a new sport. They enjoy building Legos, creating things, cub scouts, and playing outdoors together. You can see Mike in many ways through Blake and Easton.
