    I am saddened to hear of Uncle Mikes passing. I can still
    see myself walking down Pearl Street with Loretta and stopping
    by the gas station or the few times he helped me out when I had my first car.
    After viewing your video I can see how much he was loved and what a loss to your family.
    I wish I could be present and send my heartfelt condolences.

    Sincerely,

    Andrea Ehrhardt
