Will always remember Mike a.k.a. "Chick" as a very outgoing and caring person. He will be missed by many. Enjoyed the times we shared as Baker Lions. My best to the family.
Carol Adams (Johansen) (1969)
My prayers are with his wife and daughters and their families. Mike was a good friend and we will always remember his smile and laughter. We've missed him the last couple of reunions but I pulled out a picture from our 10 yr and there he was - at the top of the stairs - that was the kind of person he was - top of the class!

Mike was a Great Lion and Eddy Jr. General! He was a leader, a friend and a most of all a person that all loved and admired him.
I had the honor of knowing him. Mike was a friend to everyone, even if he did not know you, he made you feel as you were very important.
David Culter and Dale thanks for being there for Mike and his family. I know they and Mike appericated your friendship.
My prayer and thoughts go out to Mike and his family.

I knew Mike from the 7th grade at Eddy Junior High. Had a huge crush on him in the beginning. Grew to respect and admire him throughout High School at Baker. Great sportsman and a gentle man. He was kind and played great Basketball. So sorry to hear of his death.....He will always be "Chickini" to me. Our class of 1969 was a great group of students. we grew up in perilous times of the Viet Nam War and other cultural changes. Mike was smart and gentle too. He was admired by so many other kids. I know he is in heaven. God Bless Him
